INTRODUCTORY 

THE imagination of the sportsman would be taxed to 
conceive a more fitting- setting for the inception of 
this work than the circumstances surrounding its 
origin. In the late fall of 1919 the compiler was enjoying 
the hospitality of Mr. Warren A. Powel, of Taylorville, Illi- 
nois, for a week of shooting over their dogs. One evening- 
after a very pleasant day spent afield with the hounds, the 
conversation turned to the very considerable increase of in- 
terest in the breed among sportsmen, noted in the recent 
years. 

Mr. Powel remarked that this reminded him of something- 
he had carried in his mind for some time. He went on to 
say that the newcomers in the ranks were in quest of reliable 
information on the various phases of the subject, and with 
all prior works out of print, their only source of information 
was the all too chary contributions of men of experience in 
the press, or personal correspondence, the limitations of which 
admitted of meager information only. So, he continued, he 
felt there should be a work written or compiled from which 
the newcomers could obtain the desired information, and 
which would also preserve the history of the breed, past and 
present, as far as it could be obtained, while those who could 
furnish the facts were still with us. 

After considerable discussion during the week, the conclu- 
sion was reached that the work would be of much greater 
value as a source of authoritative information to beginners if 
the various phases of the subject, aside from the historical 
section, for which the press accounts and records would sup- 
ply the material, were treated in separate articles by men of 
unquestioned authority. It was desirable that the work 
should cover the subject as thoroughly as possible, therefore 
letters were written to many men long interested in the breed 
to obtain their views as to the scope of the work. In this way 
the composite idea of the beagle followers was obtained, and 
the general plan of the work determined. 



Introductory 

Following out the plan of making the work as useful as pos- 
sible to the sportsmen more recently taking an interest in the 
breed, it must be understood that the contributions of the 
various writers of special articles have been re-produced ex- 
actly as supplied by them, after the staff of writers had been 
selected upon consultation of the more experienced followers 
of the breed. Hence the readers of this work have in these 
pages the views and benefit of the experience of long years 
of these sportsmen, exactly as supplied by them. But permit 
this observation of the compiler, that in saying this, it is not 
done with the view of relieving himself of any responsibility 
for the views expressed. On the contrary, he wishes to say, 
that after an experience in the breed of come twenty years, 
involving attendance at field trial events and shows and ex- 
change of views, he endorses as sound to the core every con- 
tribution of the various special writers to be found in these 
pages. 

One feature of the work to which special attention and a 
great deal of time has been devoted has been the effort to 
obtain as many good pictures of the more noted dogs as pos- 
sible for the illustrations. Beagle followers, especially of the 
generation of those from 1900 on, have suffered many of the 
best hounds of that period to pass from the scene of their 
accomplishments without having good pictures of them pre- 
served. Those presented are all the most diligent efforts 
of the compiler has been able to bring to light, and, in passing, 
it is desired to invoke for the benefit of someone who may in 
later years undertake a similar task, greater attention to this 
item upon the part of the followers of the beagle. 

The compilation of the work has brought, along with the 
labor and time spent, the very great pleasure of a much more 
extensive acquaintance with the beagle followers, and it is 
desired to here express grateful acknowledgment of the inter- 
est manifested in the work by them generally, and the many 
helpful suggestions made and assistance accorded in different 
ways from many of whom limitations of space « preclude spe- 
cial mention. 

Invaluable assistance has been afforded by the reports of 
shows and field trial meetings found in the press accounts 



Introductory 

of the period covered, and by the records of the American 
Kennel Club and the American Field Publishing- Company 
through its Field Stud Dog Book, the officers and represen- 
tatives of both of which institutions have extended every 
courtesy and possible assistance. All available sources of in- 
formation have been checked carefully in an attempt to make 
the data and records presented as accurate as possible. Inac- 
curacies may still be found, but the record information pre- 
sented is as nearly correct as the best effort which could be 
put forth and the sources of information available have made 
possible. 

With all individual effort expended, however, whatever 
measure of success has been achieved must be recorded as 
being in no small part due to the writers of the special articles 
presented, who have undertaken them only after much modest 
protest and urgent solicitation, not only of the compiler, but 
of others who have suggested them for their several assign- 
ments. Along this line it may be said that each has asked 
the question as to how much space he was to take, and re- 
ceived the uniform answer that he was to take as much space 
as he deemed necessary to cover his subject. 

It is desired to express a special measure of appreciation 
of the assistance received from the prior able works of Mr. 
Bradford S. Turpin and Mr. Reno B. Cole, which have afford- 
ed a wealth of information and material impossible to obtain 
otherwise. Neither may this feature of the work he passed 
properly without expressing appreciation of the great interest 
taken and assistance extended by Mr. James W. Appleton, 
President and pioneer member of the National Beagle Club 
of America, and Mr. C. Staly Doub. The last named gentle- 
man possesses a collection of scrap book material and pictures 
which must be seen to be appreciated, covering practically the 
entire period of beagle history in America, since our favorites 
were taken up as a breed, first in shows and later in field trial 
events. These pictures and his scrap book collection he cheer- 
fully made available for use in the work, and it is hoped will 
accept the will for the deed for any shortcomings of expres- 
sion of appreciation of the assistance he has thereby afforded. 



Introductory 



Another gentleman who has taken a great interest in the 
breed in a very practical way, along the same lines as Mr. 
Doub, is Mr. L. I. Wade, of Houston, Texas, of the Southwest- 
ern Beagle Club, who some years back conceived and carried 
out the idea of compiling and keeping up to date an alphabeti- 
cal list of winners in field trials, with their breeding and data 
of their performances. The use of this record, furnished by 
him, has made it practicable to supply this, one of the most 
valuable features of this work, otherwise a matter of great 
labor and research. 

Without the co-operation of the many admirers of the merry 
little hound generally, and the past and present efforts of the 
gentlemen mentioned, in particular, all flowing from the well 
spring of mutual helpfulness and good fellowship which is the 
common heritage of all true sportsmen, this work could not 
have been carried to completion. If, therefore, it shall serve 
its intended purpose, full measure of credit for its success is 
accorded to the sources, and to the press, and to the gentle- 
men and to the organizations mentioned. 

As to the compiler personally, he wishes to say that while 
the undertaking has involved a considerable amount of labors 
on his part, his researches, taking him as they have through 
the period of over a third of a century covered, with their 
attendant insight into the high and sportsmanlike character 
of the gentlemen who have been responsible for the estima- 
tion in which the breed and its accompanying institutions of 
field trials and shows are held today, have been a source of 
real pleasure. But with all this, there is due Mr. Powel, 
thorough sportsman and true friend of all sportsmen, whose 
insistence upon the undertaking and liberality in carrying it 
on has made the work possible, a full division of whatever 
credit may be accorded to those directly responsible for its 
production. 



THE BEAGLE IN AMERICA 

BY 

H. W. PRENTICE 

DEKALB, ILLINOIS 



INTO whatever realms of conjecture we may be lead by specu- 
lation as to the origin of the domestic dog of today, as we find 
it in the many recognized breeds, none may gainsay the fact 
that he is the first friend and companion of man among ani- 
mals. Scientific research has disclosed the bones of prehistoric 
men and dogs side by side, and so the dog has continued through 
the ages, truly chronicled as the beloved companion of mankind. 

Man, quick to recognize his worth as a puppy playmate of the 
children, and as guardian of the home and valued companion 
and assistant in the chase as he grew to maturity, has from time 
to time by breeding and selection, and calling to the assistance 
o) his intelligence the mysterious instinct intensifying and 
characteristic developing processes of the chemistry of nature, 
developed the various breeds suited to his especial needs. And 
among these may be found none more loved and valued by man, 
as friend and companion at home and afield, than the well named 
"merry little hound," the beagle of our day. 

Implanted in the breast of man from the earliest days of which 
we have account, or information resulting from the research of 
archaeologists, is the love of the chase and the pursuit of game. 
Originally a matter of detail of the daily life as a means of 
supplying the family larder, the instinct of the chase remained 
after the coming of domestic herds and flocks supplying the 
family needs. With the increasing elimination from time to 
time of capture of game as a matter of necessity, there has re- 
sulted among the civilized peoples an increasing appreciation of 
the value of the chase as a matter of sportsmanship, and of the 
attendant benefit to mankind as a source of recreation. 

In America, with the settlement of the country from time to 
time, and the clearing of the forests and fields for agricultural 
purposes and attendant destruction of the natural cover and 



The Beagle in America 



19 



retreats necessary to the protection and conservation of wild life, 
game has become scarcer and scarcer with the progress of de- 
velopment of the country. But the sportsmen of the present 
generation, confronted with the practical disappeaVance in many 
sections of every other kind of game, have yet to thank Dame 
Nature for the common rabbit, which remains and propagates 
about the haunts of civilized man, and so affords, with the 
beagle as four-footed companion of the chase, the means, un- 
available to the great majority of sportsmen otherwise, of satis- 
fving the natural desire of man for an occasional day's sport 
afield. 




IMP. FLORIST 



Writers differ as to the origin of the beagle, but wherever it 
may have been, the breed has been an established one in England 
for several centuries. We find in Orpheus, a painting dating 
about the year 1650, by the Italian master Castiglioni, who is 
said to have visited England about that time, and in other 



The Beagle in America 



paintings of about the same period, representations which are 
unquestionably those of beagles. Chaucer and Shakespeare 
mention them in their writings, and Mr. Paget in his article in 
this work mentions them as having been known in times of great 
antiquity there. 

In later years, as our forefathers of English parentage and 
those who followed them, first came to our shores, the sportsman 
of their number from time to time brought their favorites with 
them. Many years before they were taken up as a breed by 
any specialty club in America, they were known here as a dis- 
tinct breed. We read in Mr. Turpin's well known work that a 
majority of the beagles of a century ago were, as he describes 
them, "long bodied, crooked legged dogs, usually black and tan 
in color, with snipy muzzles and rather short ears," these char- 
acteristics, variant in those respects from the beagle of the 
recognized standard of today, being doubtless due to crossing 
in on beagles brought from England more or less of dachshund 
or basset hound blood. 




BELRAV CHORISTER 



Notwithstanding the scarcity of importations of fresh blood 
in pure bred beagles, and the lack of any club formed in the 
interest of the breed in America, however, much of the beagle 
stock was kept remarkably close to the standard. There was in 
America in an early day, and may be still, a type provided for 
in the shows as late as the early eighties, called the bench-legged 
beagle. Among the exhibitors of them were Mr. Pottinger 
Dorsey, and from his surviving contemporaries are obtained 
accounts of them in considerable numbers in Maryland, his home 



The Beagle in America 



state, and elsewhere. We find no mention of them as a specially 
recognized breed in England, yet it is said by Mr. Hiram Card 
that Dyke, one of the ancestors of his Blue Cap strain, was a 
bench-legged beagle purchased from a breeder in Maryland, and 
the immediate ancestors of this particular dog are said to have 
been imported stock. 

With the advent of dog shows and their accompanying estab- 
lishment of standards of type through the activities of specialty 
clubs devoted to the interests of the different breeds, beagle in- 
terests began to receive more deserving attention. In 1884 the 
first specialty club of the breed, the American-English Beagle 
Club, was formed and a standard of type adopted. Today, nearly 
four decades since, a comparison of the standard then adopted 
with that of today, found elsewhere in this work in parallel 
columns, shows the then prevailing idea of the right kind of 
beagle to have stood the test of experience of the intervening 
years with very little change found necessary. To these pioneers, 
therefore, must be accorded the credit of laying the enduring 
foundation of the beagle of our day. 

It will be of interest and in the proper place here to give the 
first standard, and the standard of the National Beagle Club of 
America, now in force, in comparative columns, for the double 
purpose, first, of showing the standard of points and the relative 
value of the different sections, under which judgment is passed 
in the show ring, and second, of showing what changes have 
been made.

Your committee therefore, for the 
sake of consistency and that the

The Beagle in America 



This arrangement is, of course, 
arbitrary, the question being one 
governed entirely by fancy. 

The colors first named form the 
most lively contrast and blend bet- 
ter in the pack, the solid colors be- 
ing sombre and monotonous to the 
eye. 

It is not intended to give a point 
value to color in the scale for judg- 
ing; as before said, all true hound 
colors being correct. The forego- 
ing remarks upon the subject are 
therefore simply suggestive. 

GENERAL APPEARANCE. A 
miniature foxhound, solid and big 
for his inches, with the wear and 
tear look of the dog that can last 
in the chase and follow his quarry 
to the death. 

NOTE. — Dogs possessing such 
serious faults as are enumerated 
under the headings of disqualifica- 
tions are under the grave suspicion 
of being of impure blood. 

Under the heading of defects, 
objectionable features are indicat- 
ed. Such departures from the 
standard, not however, impugning 
the purity of the breeding.

From a comparison of the two standards shown, it will be 
noted that the value of the head in the first has been reduced 
ten points in the present standard, and the same number of 
points added to the body and running gear sections. The beagle 
being essentially a hunting dog, this has been done for the pur- 
pose of giving relatively greater weight to the physical equip- 
ment of the dog for the field work required, consistent with the 
item of "general appearance" in the standard, the "miniature 
foxhound, solid and big for his inches, with the wear and tear 
look of the dog that can last in the chase, and follow his quarry 
to the death." 




CLOUD 



Since shows afforded the first style of feature affording an 
opportunity for exhibition of specimens of the breed in competi- 
tion, it will be in order here to afford information relative to the 
plan of organization and workings of the American Kennel Club, 
the general and only governing body in all recognized breeds in 
America. This organization, with its predecessors, since merged 
with it, dates back some fifty years or more. It is made up, not 
of individuals, but of the specialty clubs of the different breeds, 



26 



The Beagle in America 



as members. The member clubs, through their regularly elected 
delegates, select the officers of the American Kennel Club itself, 
these officers thereupon conducting and administering the affairs 
and business of the organization. The oldest specialty club in any 
breed is recognized and stands as the parent club of that breed 
and later formed organizations, as relating to beagle specialty 
clubs, desiring to hold a field trial meeting or bench show, must 
first obtain the sanction of the parent club, which is the National 
t>eagle Club of America. This being obtained, the show or field 
trial is licensed by the American Kennel Club, after holding 
which the newly formed club is eligible to membership in the 
American Kennel Club, upon making application, which is re- 
ferred to the parent club, and must be sanctioned by it before 
the newcomer can be admitted to membership. 

Specialty clubs are those devoted to the interest of a particular 
breed or breeds, and are so called to distinguish them from clubs

giving events open to dogs of all breeds. Each member club is 
entitled to hold one annual field trial or show, the results of 
which are certified and reported by the officers and judges, to 
the American Kennel Club, where these details are made matters 
of record. Championships in the various breeds and in field trial 
events are regulated by rule, and when a dog has completed its 
championship record, either field or show, the honor achieved is 
so recorded and recognized.

the late seventies, first took cognizance of beagles as a breed, 
prior to the organization of the American-English Beagle Club. 
Classifications have been changed from time to time, and at the 
present time the regular classes consist, as to each sex, of the 
puppy class, open to those over six months and not exceeding 
one year old; the novice class, open to those bred in the United 
States, Canada, Mexico or Cuba, and never having won a first 
prize, puppy class wins excepted, at any recognized show ; the 
limit class, open to dogs not having won six first prizes in this 
class; the American bred, open to those bred in the United 
States; and the open class, open to all over six months old. 
Three of these classes, including the open class, must be given, 
and the limit and open classes are usually divided by heighth, 
between those thirteen inches and under, and those over thirteen 
and not over fifteen inches. 

When these classes have been judged, the first place winners 
in each are brought together for competition in the winners' 
class, which may be divided by sex, provided the three required 
legular classes are so divided, thus affording an opportunity for 
one of each sex to obtain the winner's honor. After winners 
have been awarded, the others placed first in the regular classes, 
and also placed second to the winner in any class, unless pre- 
viously defeated by another in a class in which the winner was 
not entered, are judged in competition for reserve, the second 
high honor of the sex. A provision is also made for field trial 
classes, open to dogs placed at any recognized field trial, and 
also a hunting class, open to dogs which have been placed at or 
received a certificate of merit as a hunting dog from judges of 
a recognized field trial. The winners in these classes, however, 
do not come into competition for the honor of winners, these 
classes not being regular classes, as the others mentioned are 
termed. 

The bench show championship rule has been changed, also, 
from time to time, as occasion arose, and is now based upon the 
number of beagles entered and exhibited in the regular classes 
of both sexes, upon the following scale of points: 

Bench Show Championship Rating: 

Scale of Points 1 2 3 4 5 

Entries benched 4 10 14 23 30 

Four entries in regular classes and less than ten benched, of 
both sexes, gives winners of each sex a rating of one point 
toward a championship, ten entries and less than fourteen gives

two points, and so on up to the five point limit. Fifteen points 
are required to constitute a show championship record, which 
must be acquired under at least three different judges, and must 
include at least two three-point wins. 

While a scale of points has been provided, covering the dif- 
ferent sections, the comparison method of judging is now uni- 
versally followed by judges in the ring, using the values in the 
different sections as a guide in passing upon the relative merit 




EDWARD MARSHALL 



of the entries. There has at times been more or less agitation 
and discussion of the plan of doing the judging by the score 
card method, giving each entry the score to which in the judg- 



30 



The Beagle in America 



ment of the judge it is entitled, and determining the results of 
the competition according to the scores so made under judgment. 
This plan has been tried occasionally and found impracticable, 
show ring judges having found from experience they are able to 
arrive at their decisions with much greater consistency by fol- 
lowing the comparison method.

Another much mooted question at the present time is that 
regarding a change in the rules, providing for separate competi- 
tion for winners' honors in the thirteen and fifteen-inch classes. 
A hound of the larger size has a correspondingly greater op- 
portunity to develop to conform to the standard than his smaller 
competitor. Yet as the rules now stand, the smaller hound, while 
he may have attained the utmost development according to the 
standard for his inches, must compete with those of the larger 
size. The result of this is that it becomes very difficult for one 
of the smaller size to attain winners' honors in the shows, es- 
pecially the larger ones, and complete a show championship 
record. The necessary result of this condition is a very light 
entry, usually, in the thirteen-inch classes. 



The Beagle in America 31 



Since the rules recognize the two sizes by making provision 
for classes for each, and each size has its admirers, it appears to 
be an injustice to the smaller hounds to require them to compete 
for winners with those of the fifteen-inch size. The principal 
field of usefulness of a show to the breed is to bring to the atten- 
tion of its followers of any breed or class the better dogs for 
their guidance in breeding. As the rules now stand, and because 
of them, breeders are deprived of this advantage, due to the 
realization of exhibitors of the futility of entering their thirteen- 
inch hounds in competition for winners. It seems highly de- 
sirable that a change in the rules be made providing for separate 
competition of the sizes. This would result in increase of entries 
of the smaller hounds, and the larger shows would be enabled 
to serve their field of usefulness to the breed by bringing to the 
attention of breeders, for their guidance, the better hounds of 
the smaller size, through the show championship records, in- 
cluding wins in the best, shows, which would then be possible of 
completion. 

In yet another respect, there is room for improvement in the 
bench show classifications for beagles. Probably the majority 
of the admirers of the breed are sportsmen who, while desiring 
to have their hounds of good type, find their chief pleasure with 
them afield. The only way in the generally prevailing classifica- 
tions by Avhich the outstanding type dogs are indicated is the 
show championship records, made through wins in the so-called 
regular classes. 

A hound enters in these, perhaps first as a puppy, but at any 
rate in his early matured years, and generally achieves the honor 
of becoming a show champion at an early age. Before a field 
trial beagle has won his way to distinction in the field trials he 
has been hunted and competed in the trials for, in most instances, 
several seasons. Again, the shows are generally held during the 
winter and spring following the field trial and hunting season. 

The necessary result is that while a hound, whether of blood 
lines or individual qualities rendering him suitable as a sire of 
desirable field stock, or not, may enter the show ring for com- 
petition for winners' honors in his prime, and may to keep him 
at his best in appearance, not have been allowed the experience 
of his hunting contemporaries of hard work afield in the brush 
and briars, the latter, when they have by competition in field 
trial events proved their accomplishments as field dogs, are gen- 
erally of more advanced years, and almost always, more or less 
scarred and roughened by their work afield. 



32 



The Beagle in America 



When, if entered by their owners for competition in the show 
ring, after they have proved their title afield, for the purpose of 
affording admirers of the breed the benefit of the decision of the 
judges as to their relative merits in type, they find themselves, 
if in the regular classes, in competition in most instances with 
dogs of younger age and free from marks of hard usage afield. 
It is urged, therefore, that in the show classifications, there 
should be provided classes providing for competition for best of 




imp. windholme's demon 



type in sex, that is, best type dog and best type bitch, and 
reserve to each, among the entries in the field trial classes, 
entries in which are limited to dogs placed in recognized field 
trial events. 
With such a classification, shows would come much nearer to 



The Beagle in America 33 



serving their principal field of usefulness in pointing out among 
the hounds which are of proven merit afield, for the guidance of 
breeders who are attempting to breed to the standard, those 
which are the best in type of their sex, than under the classifica- 
tions generally used, which with the exception of the show of 
the National Beagle Club of America, which offers a special for 
the best in type of the entries in the field trials, and perhaps 
one or two others, offer no opportunity for competition for best 
of type among hounds of proven field quality. 

With scarcity of importations and crossing in of mixed blood. 
original beagle stock brought to America had in time undergone 
marked deterioration in type, to the extent that dogs of general 
hound type which could run a rabbit were called rabbit dogs or 
beagle hounds, indiscriminately. In the late seventies, we have 
the first account of importations which are the foundation of 
the greater part of the best strains in America at the present 
time, the so-called Rowetts, of which the first appear to have 
been Warrior and Sam, .imported by Mr. C. H. Turner, and 
Dolly, imported by Gen. Richard Rowett. Ringwood, a dog 
of excellent quality, was imported by Mr. Norman Elmore about 
the same time. 

These dogs found immediate favor with admirers of a hound 
of good type and field quality, and with their progeny were 
shown extensively, resulting in an immediate quickening of in- 
terest in both type and field quality. With the formation of the 
American-English Beagle Club in 1884, show clubs extended 
their recognition of the breed by offering more generous classi- 
fications and special prizes. The attention of breeders was more 
and more directed to breeding to the standard, and marked in- 
crease of beagles of improved type and quality was noticeable 
in the shows. Very soon the former and generally accepted idea 
that anything which resembled a hound at all and could run a 
rabbit was a beagle became dispelled, and the beagle began to 
come into its own. 

It is and will be a matter of lasting regret that the breeding of 
these first importations was never preserved, but the many 
attempts to do so made with the passing of the years by those 
interested have been unsuccessful. It is, however, of great in- 
terest at this time to know the type and general conformation 
of this strain, viewing which in the illustration of Trailer pre- 
sented, it is easy to see why this strain at once found favor in 
the eyes of admirers of a good hound, and laid the foundations 
of the best strains of later days as it did.

Another illustration found also in the press is the dog 
Cameron's Racket, sire of Trailer, another noted Rowett of later 
generation, but of the early days, both made from photographs 
of the subject, and so nearly alike in conformation that with the 
markings placed the same on each they could scarcely be told 
apart. Trailer was scored in a show judged by Norman Elmore, 



WHELPED MAY 2,1883. 




held at Newark, New Jersey, in the early eighties. Mr. Elmore, 
already noted as the importer of Ringwood, and as familiar with 
the Rowett strain as any man of his time, scored him ninety- 
eight points according to the standard, from which we may 
safely take it that this dog was an excellent representative of 
the Rowett strain and type. 

Gen. Rowett appears from the records of the times to have 
been one of the most active exhibitors of that strain, but when 
he was gathered to his fathers, the mantle fell on able shoulders 
when the most of his stock went to Mr. Pottinger Dorsey of 
New Market, Md., and Mr. C. Staley Doub, of Frederick, Md. 
They carried on his work very successfully, and to their efforts 



jO The Beagle in America 



we are indebted for the well known Lee strain, Triumph, Wan- 
derer, Welcome, Harker, Hooker and many other of the best 
dogs of their day. These gentlemen were sportsmen of the true 
type, with entire absence of mercenary motive, and always 
striving for their ideal in their breeding operations. 

The word of Mr. Dorsey upon a dog was as good as his bond, 
and he took the pride of an artist in the result of his efforts. 
His death in the field, with his friends and among his favorites, 
removed from the ranks of devotees of the beagle one of the men 
most responsible for its subsequent success, but his high ideals 
and sportsmanlike qualities have left to succeeding generations 
a standard of equal value for their emulation. Mr. Doub, his 
contemporary and lifelong friend, who still hunts his splendidly 
broken and level and attractive pack three times weekly, and to 
whose interest, as a preserver of everything of interest in the 
breed through the years, we are indebted for much of the ma- 
terial presented, has the unique record of never having charged 
a stud fee, never sold a dog, and never killed a rabbit, perhaps 
a little on the extreme order for those of us* who like to see a 
rabbit roll over to the crack of the nitro after a good drive by 
the hounds, but one worthy of consideration by those with re- 
gard mainly to the size of a day's bag. 

Another strain of prominence in the early days, and which 
by reason of the long life granted its breeder, Mr. Hiram Lard, 
now past seventy years of age, of Elora, Canada, has been kept 
the most distinct of any, is the Blue Cap strain. At the founda- 
tion of this strain we find the blood of the blue ticked strain. 
Imp. Blue Cap and Imp. Blue Bell, imported by Capt. William 
Assheton, of Virginia, a fancier of the earlier days, from the 
kennels of Sir A. Ashburnham. of England. These were sire 
and dam of the dog known as Card's Blue Cap, figuring in the 
pedigrees of dogs of that strain, which was crossed on dams of 
the Rowett blood, and with the Bannerman blood. Back some 
places will even be found Dyke, one of the so-called bench- 
legged beagles, obtained from Maryland breeders, and yet, ac- 
cording to authentic information from Mr. Card, being the 
progeny of Imp. Smart and Imp. Katy. which in turn affords 
substantial evidence that this type of beagle carried in its veins 
the blood of the fountain source of the breed. 

Mr. Card was always an insistent advocate of the blue ticked 
or mottled color, with black markings, tan trimmed, as being 
the only true color for a hound, for which color he bred, as he 
did also for field qualities and type, and from which the strain 



3& 



The Beagle in America 



derives its name. They have always been noted as excellent 
field dogs of good type, and with keen noses and good voices, 
and in type, as a strain, are said by Mr. Card to have been of 
the same general style and conformation as the Rowetts, of 
which they carried the blood in large proportion. 

Still another pioneer breeder, better known in the West, was 
Edward Marshall, of Dowagiac, Mich., whose demise was a close 
parallel with that of Mr. Dorsey, being found by a friend in his 
last sleep in the yard among his favorites. Rugged and rough 
as the oak, but as sterling in quality and integrity, one whose 
word was always good and who stood ever ready to come to the 
aid of the novice with invaluable advice, and found his chief 




WANDERER 



pleasure from his activities as a breeder in results accomplished, 
rather than the financial returns, he left a memory which his 
friends will always hold in affectionate recollection. The 
foundation of his strain was the Rowett blood, and in the pedi- 
grees of those he bred in the early days will be found the first 
importations and many of their descendants. 



The Beagle in America

In common with other pioneers of the breed, he bred as well 
for type as field quality, and in the records of the shows will be 
found many entered under the name of Middleton Kennels, of 
which he was the proprietor, marked for high awards. Along 
with his success in breeding for type, he was very successful in 
developing a strain noted for clean necks and shoulders with 
splendid action afield and endurance and keen desire to hunt. 
In addition to the splendid monument the high plane on which 
he conducted his breeding operations affords, his greatest con- 
tribution to the interests of the breed consists in the fact that 
he was the breeder of the greatest of producing dams, Florienne, 
to which so many winners in the field trial events, dating from 
1907, trace their lineage. 




ROYAL KRUEGER 



Another of the pioneers of the breed who has passed on since 
this work was undertaken was Dan Summers. Dating back to 
1894, when he attended his first beagle field trial meeting, that 
of the National Beagle Club, where he placed his entry Lucy S 
second in the derby class, he has been a consistent patron of 
these events through the years. The records will show many 
placed with high honors, carrying his name as owner, among 
them the great Belray Brighteyes, and ending with his win with 
Waldingfield Bellman of second place in the great Victory Stake 
at the meeting of the National Club in 1919. Always a keen 
competitor and desirous of winning any event in which he had 
entries, he was nevertheless known universally among his asso- 



40 The Beagle in America 

ciates as one who scorned any resort to any unfair or sharp 
practices to gain his end, and he will be greatly missed by his 
associates of so many years, who appreciated him as the true 
sportsman they always found him. 

Champion Bannerman, imported by Dr. L. H. Twaddell, for 
Mr. Lewis Sloan, of Philadelphia, along about 1884, is another 
dog which exercised a great influence on the breed at that time. 
Of the smaller size himself, and coming from a pack of the 
smaller size, he was used by many in the effort to reduce the 
size of the breed, but when his decidedly defective head is con- 
sidered, it is fortunate for the breed that on account of his 
tendency to sire puppies with a preponderance of white, many 
breeders abstained from using him. He must be given credit, 
however, for producing some very good dogs on certain crosses, 
and among them was Jack Bannerman, a dog of beautiful voice 
as well as good held quality, mentioned as having been used by 
Mr. Card in the development of his Blue Cap strain. 

Another importation of great influence was that of Chimer, 
imported by Mr. Diffendoeffer, of Pennsylvania. This dog ap- 
pears to have been used extensively with bitches of the Rowett 
strain, combined with the blood of Mr. Elmore's dogs, to which 
may be traced the field properties of the noted Lady Novice. 
One of the get of this dog was the successful matron, Spinaway, 
two of whose sons, Fashion and Ch. Robino II, were the show 
leaders of their day, the latter, especially, having a very remark- 
able show record. 

As already noted, the first organized movement in the interest 
of improvement of the breed was the formation of the American- 
English Beagle Club, in 1884, which later changed its name to 
the American Beagle Club. Its first President was Mr. W. H. 
Ashburner, of Philadelphia, and its Secretary-Treasurer, Mr. 
F. W. Wheaton, of Wilkesbarre, Penna. We find the committee 
selected to draft the standard adopted at that time consisted of 
Dr. L. H. Twaddell, of Philadelphia, and the two pioneer im- 
porters, Gen. Richard Rowett, of Carlinville, 111., and Mr. 
Norman Elmore, of Granby, Conn. 

The activities of this organization resulted in large increases 
from year to year in the beagle classes at the various shows, and 
among the names of owners and exhibitors of the period it 
continued its individual organization, as later explained, we find 
the well known names of Dr. J. W. Downer, Gen. F. A. Bond, 
Capt. Wm. Assheton, Colin Cameron, George Pownell, J. N. 
Dodge, George Peters, Pottinger Dorsey, A. C. Kreuger, Dan

O'Shea, William L. Crittenden, Prof. W. A. Legare, and many 
others. Because of scattered membership and lack of acquaint- 
ance of members, with no annual meeting to draw them together, 
however, the organization appears to have lost rather than 
picked up headway. But it was kept existent and an active 
factor, nevertheless, by the diligence of its last President, Mr. 
H. F. Schellhass, of New York. The effort of the American 
Beagle Club had been along the line of improvement of the 
breed in type for show purposes, and it served its purpose well, 
bringing the breed from a position of obscurity to one well 
recognized among the standardized breeds of the times, and its 
pioneer endeavors along this line must be accorded the full meas- 
ure of appreciation accordingly by its beneficiaries of the present 
day. 




BELRAY BUGLER 



In 1890 the National Beagle Club was formed, having for its 
object the holding of field trial events for the improvement of 
field qualities, as well as improvement in type. Making applica- 
tion as a specialty club for admission to the American Kennel 
Club, it was at first refused admission because of the refusal of 
the American Beagle Club, successor to the American-English 
Beagle Club, standing as the parent club of the breed in the 
organization, to sanction its admission. The men behind the 
new club, however, went ahead with their plans, and in 1891 



The Beagle in America 



43 



the American Beagle Club was merged with the National Beagle 
Club, which then changed its name to The National Beagle Club 
of America, which it has since retained. It was then admitted 
to membership in the American Kennel Club, and has since 
stood as the parent club of the breed. 

Organized as a specialty club for the improvement of the 
breed, and committed to improvement of the beagle on the bench 
as well as in the field, it is interesting to note in an account of 
its operations, prior to its admission to the American Kennel 
Club, that a proposal was submitted to strike from its constitu- 
tion reference to improvement on the bench, thus making it a 




YANKEE BEX 



field trial organization only. Its President, however, appears 
to have voiced the sentiments of the membership in the emphatic 
statement he made at that time, "The National Beagle Club has 
nothing to take back. This club was formed for the improve- 
ment in the field and on the bench of the beagle hound in 
America, and will enter the American Kennel Club with its con- 
stitution unchanged, if it enters at all." 

Through the years since, the National Beagle Club of America 
has stood and worked for its declaration of purposes expressed 
in its constitution, Sevoted both to improvement in the field and 



44 The Beagle in America 

on the bench, and standing as the parent club since that 
time, it has surely done its work well. With entire unselfishness 
of purpose, its consent has been promptly forthcoming to the 
formation of new clubs seeking its consent from time to time to 
hold licensed events and acquire membership in the American 
Kennel Club. Its show events have come to be recognized as 
one of the two leading shows of the year, while its field trial 
events have always stood at the head of the list in point of en- 
tries and interest shown. The standard of field work required 
under its running rules and the judges selected has been of the 
highest, and a win in its events appreciated and rated accord- 
ingly. 

One of its efforts in the way of improvement in type in the 
early days of the nineties is shown in its Produce Stakes offered 
as an annual event at the annual show of the Westminster 
Kennel Club at New York, its advertisement of which is here 
reproduced.

With the early nineties came into prominence the well known 
Frank Forest, a line bred Rowett on the side of the sire, Riot, 
and on the side of his dam. Skip, being a double grandson of 
the dog Victor, a son of Rattler and Lady Bird II, litter brother 
and sister imported from England, and bred in the kennels of 
Sir A. Ashburnham. He was bred by the well known George 
F. Reed, known to his intimates as Canada Gray, and until the 
present year, and dating from the earliest days of the National 
Beagle Club, was one of its active and most valued members. 
This dog was sold first to Mr. Arthur Parry, of Linden, Mass., 
and latter passed into the ownership of Mr. H. L. Kreuder, and 
iwell handled by these gentlemen, was bred to extensively and 




CH. FRANK FOREST 



proved one of the outstanding sires of his time. Mated with 
Sue Forest, said on good authority to have been imported, 
although her breeding was never published, Frank Forest sired 
the winner, Champion Clyde, among others, which mated with 
Lady Novice produced a winning family of the highest quality, 
which for many years seldom if ever failed of having one of its 
members recorded as a winner in the events of the New England 
Beagle Club. 
Another noted importation of the earlier days was Lonely and 



46 The Beagle in America 



three of her sons by Ringwood. She was of unusually good type, 
expression and color, and made a brilliant record on the bench 
both in England and after coming to America, although she was 
brought here after passing her prime. It is said by the writers 
of the times to have been a great mystery that her three sons 
should have been so long coupled, coming from a dam of so 
much merit. Their "descendants, however, overcame this fault 
to some extent, as among them we find later on Robino II, a 
noted winner of excellent hound character and rich coloring. 

Field trials in the nineties not having effected the later demon- 
stration of the feasibility of breeding a beagle of good combined 
type and field qualities, at least in the estimation of many beagle 
men, there was considerable scoffing at the show bred dogs by 
writers in the press of those days. This seems to have resulted 
in the decision of the late Mr. James L. Kernochan to demon- 
strate the possibility of bringing out beagles of desirable quality 
from both view points, and about 1896, he began the importation 
of hounds from the English hunting packs, of type according to 
the American standard. 

The efforts of Mr. Kernochan cannot be too highly valued, 
for the dogs imported and bred by him from them have proved 
of great and lasting value to the breed, both in the field and on 
the bench. Among them and their descendants we find Florist, 
Oronsay Matron, Leader III, and Trueman of the Middlesex 
Reagles, Hector and Flossie of the Somerset Beagles, Fiddler 
of the Round Plains Beagles, Nassau Fabian, a first place winner 
at the National club's trials and a field trial champion, and many 
others, including also the two producing sons of Florist, Sir 
Florist and Sir Florist Boy, the latter also a field trial champion 
by virtue of two wins at the New England club and one at the 
National club. 

The two last mentioned carry on the side of their dam, 
Wyomissing Flossie, a combination, going back to the fifth 
generation, of the blood of the Rowetts and Imp. Florist, with 
one cross of the Bannerman blood in the fourth generation on 
the side of the dam. An examination of the appended tables 
will disclose among the winners many carrying the blood of this 
noted cross, and when, turning to the pedigrees of the progeny 
of Hempfield Little Dandy and Florienne in subsequent years, 
we find largely the same combination of blood lines in that suc- 
cessful cross, and many winners carrying their blood, the fact is 
conclusively demonstrated that the proper crossing of these 
strains has produced a very large proportion of the best field 
dogs, past and present.

The interest of the beagle men of the early days was as keen 
in the show ring- as in the field trial events. George F. Reed, 
who was one of the most active and successful breeders and 
participants in the field trials, gives the best illustration of their 
great interest in shows, in a letter written his friend Mr. Doub, 
after the New York Show in 1897, and lest it lose some of its 
interest in the telling, we will give it in Mr. Reed's own words:

"Now Post asked for dogs for Special No. 1. In comes Thorn- 
wood, Truman, Hector, Florist, Ring Leader, Roy K and Frank 
Forest. Ringleader had already beat Frank and Roy K. Lonely 
II, Oronsay Matron and old Champion Lonely, and the fun 
went on. Now. boys, I was ready. for this procession. I was 
with Flarker five minutes before they were called, and Old Bill 
(William Saxby), was to come to the bench when they wanted 
him and let me know. I had the rough hair on his shoulder flat,

the rest of the body and coat I let alone. I took off his collar 
and put on a small but firm fish line, as I have noticed a collar 
presses the skin back, making his shoulders look loaded. You 
could not see the cord. It was under the hair, and I then 
snapped a chain on the cord ; so here we all go around the ring 
for ten minutes. Lonely II bothered Harker, as he could smell 
her as she was in heat. The first ones to go into the corner 
were Hector, Frank, Roy K, Truman, then old Lonely, then 
Thornwood and Robino, then Matron. This left Ringleader, 
Florist and Harker. Then, dear old Pard, I needed all my nerve, 
for I could hear and feel my heart beat. Post ordered us to the 
bench in the middle of the ring. First Harker on the left, then 
Florist and Ringleader, then I reached down and unsnapped the 
chain from the cord and dear old Harker stood like a statue, 
legs well under him, brush carried gaily. First Post looked 
Ringleader over, then Florist, then he told the great Joe Lewis 
with his great Ringleader to take Ringleader to the corner with 
the rest. Staley. I did not dare look up or away from Harker 
for fear I would smile. Now he takes Harker and the dear 
old boy stood up like a major. I snapped the chain on the collar 
and gave him a run across the ring to show his motion and back 
on the bench, and boys, I done my level best. I drew my hand 
down over the fore leg to feet, for I knew if Post looked at his 
feet I could beat Florist there. I had a small piece of Vermont 
horse hoof in my hand and Harker knew it was there. At last 
Mr. Post awarded me the ribbon enclosed in this letter, and it 
was over. My hand trembles now to think of it. The feat had 
been accomplished. Harker had won over the four cracks, 
Ringleader, Lonely, Frank Forest and Roy K. All the boys 
clapped their hands ; the first to congratulate me by shaking- 
hands was Mr. Kernochan, and on leaving the ring, I raised my 
hat to the bunch. It took me some time to put on his collar, 
for the tears were running like the devil, boys, and I felt good. 
Staley, you say you boys felt good. Do you think you can 
imagine my feelings? No, I know you can't half. Think what 
I had been through since I saw Harker was in the wrong class. 
I had made this victory for' my dear Maryland friends, not for 
myself, and dear old Maryland friends, if it has given you boys 
any pleasure I am glad, for first among my heart friends are 
you boys. 

"Mr Kernochan is a pure gentleman and a sportsman. He did 
all he could to make it pleasant for old Bill and myself and all 
the others. He felt sorrv for me because Harker was out

and even went to Mr. Mortimer to intercede to have him 
transferred." 

One of the early and successful exhibitors in the ring, and 
who still successfully maintains his activity there, is Mr. George 
B. Post of New York, a member of the National Beagle Club of 
America since the early nineties. Pictures of his more noted 
dogs, doing a very considerable part of the show winnings in 
the late early eighties and early nineties are shown in those of 




HARKER 



Ch. Storm, Ch. Cloud, Potomac, Ch. Belle of Woodbrook, and 
Goodwood Rattler. Of these, Storm, Cloud and Potomac were 
full bred Rowetts, purchased from Mr. Dorsey, and sired by his 
famous Lee from his Countess, the principal part of the winnings 
of these dogs being: divided between Belle of Woodbrook and 



The Beagle in America 



5i 



Cloud. They were dogs with straight fronts and good legs and 
feet which could win upon the bench in strong competition at 
the present time. 

Mr. Post has also been an importer of a considerable number 
of hounds from England at various times, in the consistent effort 
he has made for the improvement of the breed, two of the more 
notable instances being Ch. Imp. Clasper and Ch. Somerset 
Watchman. Clasper is said by competent critics to have been 
one of the best type dogs ever shown in the ring in America, 
and immediately won his championship honors in the largest 




BELLE OF WOODBROOK 



shows and against the strongest competition. Watchman also 
took high honors in the field during his career, and the blood 
of both these dogs will be found in many of the winners in the 
field, as well as in the show ring. 

Mr. Post and Mr. James W. Appleton were among the first 
to import English stock, and were followed closely in point of 
time by the Rockridge Kennels, owned by Mr. Rockefeller, by 
Mr. H. T. Peters, of the Windholme Kennels, and by Mr. James 
L. Kernochan, previously mentioned. Following these gentle- 
men were Mr. Harry C. Phipps, of the Wheatley Kennels, Mr. 
Elliot C. Cowdin of the Domino Beagles, Mr. Gambrill of the 



52 The Beagle in America 



Vernon Place Beagles, Mr. E. S. Reynal of the Reynal Beagles, 
Mr. Arthur Burden, of the Ragdale Beagles, Mrs. ChaJloner of 
the Fairfield Beagles, and Mr. Haggin, of the Mt. Brilliant 
Beagles. All those mentioned have been importers and success- 
ful breeders, and have brought out the best show hounds we 
have had. 

A number of the more noted hounds in the ring during the 
last fourteen years have been those imported by Mr. Harry C. 
Phipps, and those bred from them in his Wheatley Kennels. 
His first importation of note was Lasher, in 1907, followed by 
Chorister in 1911, Councillor in 1913 and Stoke Place Sapper in 
1915. Perhaps of as much or more importance than any of his 
other importations was that of Frantic, in 1910, which was the 
producer of many noted winners, including Wheatley Chancellor. 
Wheatley Faithlessness, Wheatley Comedy and Wheatley 
Countess, and now numbering among her direct descendants 
also Wheatley Comet, Wheatley Costly, Wheatley Truant, 
Fannhall Merrymaid, the last two now show champions, and a 
number of others. It is noteworthy of her, also, that her blood 
will be found strong in many of the more prominent winners in 
the field. 

Another importer of the period since 1900 was Mr. Raymond 
Belmont, of the Belray Beagles, bis Belray Cora being perhaps 
the best known and having proved a heavy winner on the bench, 
and also having been placed twice in the events of the National 
Beagle Club's field trials. Ch. Folly, a litter sister of Ch. Frantic, 
and Ch. Fairy, were also importations of Mr. Post, and among 
the better known importations in the smaller hounds were 
Marvel, from the Thorp Satchville pack, and Lonely and Hotspur 
from the same pack, as is also Mr. Reynal's best known hound, 
Belle Maid. In more recent years the principal winnings in the 
larger shows, those at New York of the Westminster Kennel 
Club and of the National Beagle Club of America have been 
those of the Wheatley, Somerset and Belray kennels in the fif- 
teen-inch classes, and in the thirteen-inch classes, the Walding- 
field and Reynal hounds have taken a prominent place. 

The entry lists of the later and larger shows immediately 
preceding the writing of this article have been rather light, 
although marked by excellent quality. The reason for this is 
found in the fact that with the entry of America into the World 
War, several of the heavier breeders and importers, Mr. Apple- 
ton, Mr. Phipps, Mr. Cowdin. Mr. Iselin, and Mr. Reynal and 
Mr. Edward H. Carle, his neighbor and associate, joined the

forces of democracy and put on the uniform of their country 
and remained in the service for many months, during which 
time their kennel activities have been at a standstill. Free now 
to resume them, however, visits to their kennels show many 
promising young hounds under development, and with Mr. Post 
now in England in quest of desirable stock, and others planning 
similar operations, we may confidently look forward to the 




goodwood's rattler 



pleasure at no distant time of again viewing the result of their 
efforts, in large numbers as before, in the show ring. 

Coming now to an account of the institution of beagle field 
trials, beginning with the first event of the National Beagle 
Club, held in 1890, and their subsequent growth in the estima- 
tion and favor of sportsmen, along with their influence on the 
breed, it will be proper first, for a better understanding, on the 
part of admirers of the beagle who have never attended a beagle 



The Beagle in America 55 



field trial, of what follows, to give an account of the practical 
workings of such an organization and the way in which such 
events are conducted. 

In a general way, aside from the special events, such as breed- 
ers' futurity stakes, and other special events later referred to, 
the club arranges its program of events, consisting of open 
classes, or all age classes, so called, open to dogs of any age, and 
derby classes, open to puppies whelped on or after January 1st 
of the preceding year, and as the trials are held in the late fall, 
such puppies may be up to the age of about twenty-two months 
at that season. These classes are divided again, or may be, both 
by sex and size, and under the latter, into those, as trials are 
conducted nowadays, thirteen inches and under, and those over 
thirteen and not over fifteen inches in height, the latter, of 
course, being the limit under the standard. 

With some of the clubs, notably the National Beagle Club of 
America, entries are required to be made a certain number of 
days in advance, accompanied by the forfeit or first payment, 
the second and final payment to be made when the classes are 
run. With the majority of the clubs, however, the entries are 
what are termed post entries, that is, the entry may be made 
and the fee paid at the time of the running of the trials. With 
the National club, it is permissible to make a post entry, by 
paying a somewhat larger fee than the combined first and second 
payments. Whether post entries or otherwise, the fees are all 
payable by the time of the measuring and drawing, at which 
time the owners hand in the names of their starters for the dif- 
ferent stakes. The club from the entry fees and members' dues 
pays the purses offered and finances the other expenses of the 
meeting. 

When the entries have been made, they are measured by an 
official or committee of the club, to see that they are within the 
conditions as to size of the particular class. Should one fail to 
so measure, it must be transferred to its proper class according 
to size, but if entered in the class for those over thirteen and 
not over fifteen inches, if it measures more than fifteen inches 
in height, it is outside the standard, and therefore not eligible 
in competition. With most clubs, however, because of the ad- 
vantage in speed the larger size has over the smaller, it is cus- 
tomary, should one entered in the class for those thirteen inches 
and under, be found to measure over thirteen inches, to allow 
the owner the privilege if he desires of withdrawing his entry. 

Much closer measurement of entries has been observed in the 



56 



The Beagle in America 



later years, and in order that the status of a field trial beagle as 
to size, after it has attained maturity, may be fixed, some of the 
clubs have already, and most no doubt will soon, adopt a rule 
that when one has been measured after it is two years old, and 
passed as being of a certain size, it will thereafter be eligible to 
compete in events of that club for beagles of that size, without 
re-measurement, except in event of a protest being made, in 
which case it must be re-measured. 

Following the measuring, the name of each entry is written 




BOWMAN 



on a separate slip of paper, all slips then being well shaken in 
a box or hat, and drawn out, two at a time. Each two dogs so 
drawn stand as a brace to be run together in the stake, in the 
first series, in which, also, the braces are run in the order in 
which they are drawn. Should it happen that two owned by 
the same owner or to be handled by the same handler are drawn 
together, the last name drawn is laid aside, and drawing con- 



The Beagle in America 57 



tinued until one is drawn not so owned or handled, as bracemate 
for the first one, then a bracemate is drawn for the one laid 
aside. Should there be an odd number of entries, the last one 
out is what is termed the bye dog, for which the judges select 
a bracemate after the other braces have been run. 

The drawing is made in this manner, and the braces run as 
told, in order to eliminate any possibility of favoritism in giving 
one dog a better bracemate, or any one brace a more favorable 
time of day to run than another, and since acquaintance of one 
dog with its bracemate's manner of working would give an ad- 
vantage to a brace owned or handled by the same man, in 
comparison with another brace strange to each other, the draw- 
ing is also so conducted as to do away with that and leave all 
entries to work with strange bracemates. 

The club having selected grounds with a view to a plentiful 
supply of game, the judges and handlers and spectators then 
proceed to the running grounds, where the braces are run, one 
at a time, and in the order in which they are drawn. When the 
braces have all run, if there is a bye dog, the judges select from 
the others a bracemate for it, but what work the bracemate 
does in this instance does not count in its favor, because it has 
already had its opportunity with its regular bracemate. 

The braces are cast loose and started hunting for game in 
charge of their handlers, with the judges following closely to 
watch and pass on their work. A marshal is or should be pro- 
vided by the club, one who is acquainted with the grounds, but 
one of whose principal duties it should be to see that spectators 
or other owners and handlers do not crowd so closely on the 
dogs at any time as to interfere with their work. Should the 
brace under judgment or one of them start a rabbit, they are 
followed by the handlers and judges with spectators or others 
at a proper distance. While they are searching, if a rabbit is 
started by anyone, the fact is reported to the judges, who if they 
desire to expedite the work of seeing and judging the brace on 
game, may direct the handlers to bring their dogs in and work 
them on the one started. If a rabbit is seen sitting, and the 
judges desire to see the dogs worked on it, they so direct the 
handlers, and after the rabbit has been jumped, the brace is 
given an opportunity to take up the trail. 

When the various braces and the bye dog, if there be one, 
have all been given an opportunity to show their worth, the 
judges after consultation, eliminate those which in their opinion 
have not shown sufficient ability to warrant carrying them fur- 




■ ■ , 7« *t< -

ther, and announce which are to run in the second series, in 
doing which, they brace those carried on as they see fit. There 
may be a third, or even a fourth series, so conducted, before the 
judges reach a decision. It must not be understood from this 




KISHWAUKEE COLONEL 



that the work of each brace stands as a race, with the loser 
eliminated, because the system is what may be termed the spot- 
ting out system. Both of several braces may go into a subse- 



6o The Beagle in America 



quent series, and it is the all around work of the different entries, 
through the stake as a whole, which determines the order in 
which the judges place them. 

In addition to the classes for single dogs, there are also offered 
at the National club and some others, classes for packs of two. 
four or more couples. Most of these are on field work only, but 
in some of the pack classes at the National club the competition 
is on a combination of field quality and type, each counting in 
arriving at the decision. In the pack stakes, it is the work of 
the dogs as a pack, and not that of any individual dog which is 
judged and upon the basis of which the awards are made. 

In some of the clubs there are also offered classes in which 
the entries are all run at the same time for a period of several 
hours' duration as a pack, as nearly as it is possible to keep them 
together. These events are always all age events, or open 
classes, and if run under conditions complying with the rules 
of the American Kennel Club, the starters in them stand as open 
class starters, and are counted in making up the championship 
points going with a first place win under the rule in force, as 
open class starters. The work of the entries, however, in these 
events, is judged by the same standards as in the classes run by 
braces, that is, it is individual work, and not pack work, done, 
which guides the judges in arriving at their decisions. 

It is of interest at this point to show the rules of the American 
Kennel Club under which field trials are conducted, and which 
govern the making of a field trial beagle's championship record, 
and which are, accordingly, here given, as the rules stand at 
this time. 

Rule V. 

All beagles must be measured by the standards of the National 
Beagle Club before starting, and if incorrectly entered must be 
transferred to their proper classes. 

Classes when divided by height must be divided as follows: 
Over thirteen inches and not exceeding fifteen inches, and thir- 
teen inches and under, and hounds can only compete in classes 
for their respective heights. 

Rule VI. 
The total number of points required to entitle any beagle to 
a field championship is ten (10). One win must be made at a 
field trial that is rated three (3) points or over, and only one win 
of a hound can be recognized at any field trial toward a 
championship. 



The Beagle in America 



61 



All beagle trials must be rated on the actual number of start- 
ers in the open classes, namely, fifteen-inch dogs and fifteen-inch 
bitches, thirteen-inch dogs and thirteen-inch bitches ; or if any 
of these classes are combined, a class may be substituted for 
dogs and bitches fifteen inches and under, to be run as a pack 
for not less than eight hours ; the entrance fee to be not less 
than 50 per cent in excess of entrance fee of other open classes 




HOOKER 



for each hound. Derby Stakes and Pack Stakes are not open 
classes. 

(1) Beagle Trials to be rated as follows: 
Fifty starters and over, five points ; 
Forty starters and under fifty, four points ; 
Thirty starters and under forty, three points ; 
Twenty starters, and under thirty, two points ; 
Under twenty starters, one point. 

This rule has been in force during the years 1918 and 1919, 
and governs field trials held during those years. Prior to 1918, 
the rule stood from and including 1907 without the second para- 



62 



The Beagle in America 



graph of Rule VI. During that time, several clubs held events 
in which the entries were run as a pack for a stake of several 
hours' duration. The starters in some of such events, and dur- 
ing those years, counted as open class starters in determining 
the number of points going with a first place win, and a first 
place win in them in a championship record. 

But owing to the possibility under the rule as it then stood 




TONY WELLER 



of the same entry, perhaps, winning first place, both in an open 
class run by braces, and in a stake run as a pack, where the total 
number of starters at the meeting was fifty or over, and so 
winning a championship at one meeting, the rule was changed 
by the addition of the second paragraph of Rule VI as it now 
stands. Therefore unless classes in 1918 and 1919 were arranged 
and their conditions were in accordance with the rule as it now 



The Beagle in America 63 



stands, starters in them do not count in making up the cham- 
pionship rating of the meeting, neither do wins in them count 
in an entry's field trial championship record. 

In the appendix will be found a list of the different beagle 
field trial champions, with their records, which should be con- 
sidered in connection with the rules in force from time to time 
governing field trial championships. At the first meeting of the 
National Beagle Club, an all age absolute stake, so called, was 
offered, to which were eligible, first place winners in the other 
classes. Following this, the first beagle field trial held, cham- 
pionship classes were offered, open to winners of first place in 
the particular event or preceding events. With the scarcity of 
clubs and first place winners, it will be seen from the tables that 
the competition was very light in point of numbers in the earlier 
years. 

This condition resulted in a realization about 1900 of the 
necessity for a change in the system of creating champions, due 
to conditions so well shown in a letter of Mr. George F. Reed, 
published about that time, that it is here re-produced : 

"I hope the article in the American Field of July 30th in 
regard to a change of ruling in regard to the Championship 
Stake of our Beagle Trials will be carefully read and answered 
by a majority of those who have attended our beagle trials. 
I agree that it would be a higher honor for a dog to come back 
the second year and win above all others than it would be to 
have him win the class by a walkover. I would limit the stake 
to tw r o wins in the open class instead of three, for we all know 
many good beagles get hurt or knocked out some way in three 
seasons of hunting. The article brings to mind that I owe many 
letters about certain dogs that have won first in the open class 
that have never yet started in the champion class and with your 
permission I would like to answer all these through the Ameri- 
can Field. 

"In 1895 Triumph, owned by Mr. C. Staley Doub, a gentleman 
who breeds beagles only for his own pleasure and to present to 
his friends, won the all-age class for dogs and bitches over 
thirteen inches. There was no other dog eligible to start in the 
champion stake and Mr. Doub would not accept such empty 
championship honors. In 1898 Splitter, a daughter of Triumph, 
owned by my son, was awarded the same class prize that her 
dam had won in 1895, but as there was not a dog on the grounds 
to compete against her she did not start. 

"In 1899 Scorcher won this same class. She belonged to me, 



&/ 



The Beagle in America 



having been presented to me by my friend Mr. Doub. In her 
run with Dahlia she ran against a fence stake and was so lame 
the next day she could not start in the champion class. 

"I brought Splitter to those trials in 1899 to start in the cham- 
pionship stake. She came in season and according to the run- 
ning rules was not allowed on the grounds. These are the 
reasons why the three never have run in the champion class. 

"The rules of the New England Beagle Club allow of a walk- 
ox er in the champion class. Let us suppose a stake of only three 
starters in the all-age class, the winner of which would have a 




TRIUMPH 



walkover in the champion class and ever after must be called 
a champion. Now let us say that a dog starts in the National 
Trials in open class where there are twelve starters and wins 
2d money; this dog then goes to the Central Club and there 
wins 1st money in a class of ten starters, but there are no dogs 
at these trials eligible to run against him in the champion 
stake, so he cannot start and is returned home after having 




L. F. WHITMAN OF AMERICAN FIELD AND RENO B. COLE 



66 The Beagle in America 



beaten nineteen other first-class dogs. Next year he is sent to 
the National Trials, but must, according to their rules, start 
only in the champion class, but the owner of the winner in the 
open class will not run his dog in the champion class and so the 
dog that has proven himself really a champion by defeating 
nineteen others, and is ready to start in the champion class next 
year, has to be returned home without his honors. What is the 
result? This is his last appearance at the field trials. He is not 
a champion, but the dog that has defeated only two others is one. 

"At the National Trials of 1898 there were six dogs eligible to 
run in the champion class, the Only time at any field trials where 
there has been that number. These dogs were Pilot, Trick, 
Buckshot, Panic, Belle S and Splitter, and there would have 
been a chance to see a good race, but the stake was declared off 
because it did not fill. 

"I am in favor of giving up the championship stake at all field 
trials and in favor of having two wins in the open class count 
instead of three, and these wins not to bar from starting in the 
open class in any future trials."' 

The result was an agreement entered into by the three then 
existing clubs, the National, New England and Central, to recog- 
nize as a field trial champion any winner of two first places in 
open or all age class events, whether won at the trials of one 
club or another or others. This rule continued in force up to 
the end of 1906, at which time, due to the general feeling that 
beagle field trial championships were becoming so easy of 
acquisition as to lessen the value which should attach to the title, 
the National club took action to put into effect a point rating 
system, somewhat on the plan of the one now in force. 

Up to that time the American Kennel Club had never as- 
sumed jurisdiction of beagle field trial championships, but in 
1907 it adopted the rule now in force, with the later change 
noted, so that beginning with 1907, all beagle field trial cham- 
pionship records have been made under the point system shown. 
However, some starters had an open all age win previous to 
1907, and as to such dogs, it has been ruled by the American 
Kennel Club that they should complete their records under the 
rule in force at the time they started. For this reason, if a dog 
had one first open or all age class win in 1906 or prior years, 
and made one subsequent to that time, it became a champion 
under the former two win rule, an illustration of which is Young 
Tippecanoe, winning the fifteen inch all age class at the Central 
trials in 1906 and in 1907. 



The Beagle in America 



67 



With the rapidly increasing numbers in recent years of field 
trial clubs holding meetings with a five point championship 
rating, we have again reached a condition similar to that exist- 
ing in 1906, which resulted in the change then made in the rules 
and for the reasons previously stated. The points going with a 
win depend upon the total number of open class starters in the 
trial giving club's open events. Under this plan, a winner of a 




FLORIENNE 



first place in an open class with only four or five starters, of 
which there have been numerous instances under the rules, 
acquires as many points as some other which may have defeated 
a field of eighteen or twenty starters or more at the same meet- 



98 



The Beagle in America 



ing. And if an entry acquires two wins in classes of that size 
in meetings having a five point rating, it may become a field 
trial champion by virtue of having defeated two very small 
classes. The necessity of an appropriate change of rules is 
recognized by all the field trial clubs and is now under discus- 
sion, which will doubtless result in a rule under which the title 
will depend, as it should, upon the number of starters actually 
defeated in competition. 

Viewing at this time the successful and increasing operations 




F. T. CH. PILOT 



of beagle field trial clubs and interest in their events, it seems 
scarcely credible that with the announcement of the Xational 
Beagle Club in 1890 of its purpose to hold a field trial for 
beagles, a good many beagle fanciers of the day believed it 
impossible to hold such events successfully, and even ridiculed 
the efforts of the new organization, but such, nevertheless, is 
the fact. The members of the club, however, proceeded with 
their plans, and selected as the scene of their first meeting, 
Hyannis. Mass... and the date as Xovember 4th, 1890. and we 
read in the list of names of those present Messrs. O. \Y. Brook- 
ing, F. W. Chapman, Arthur Parry, F. W. Rutter. Jr.. A. W. 



70 



The Beagle in America 



Crowell, C. F. Peabody, W. A. Power, Bradford S. Turpin, W. 
S. Clark, H. V. Jamieson, John Peabody and Capt. Geo. P. 
Berry, in addition to the judges, H. W. Lacy and Joe Lewis. 

The proverbial luck of beginners was not with them, and it 
was very soon discovered the grounds were unsuitable and the 
game scarce. But these pioneers of the sport, undaunted as 
their Pilgrim forefathers, were equal to the emergency, and 
immediately shifted the scene of operations to Salem Depot, 
N. H., where their events were run off very successfully. With 
the demonstration thus afforded of the practicability of such 




F. T. CH. KISHWAUKEE MARY 



events, their success became assured, and the chronological 
tables appended show their subsequent increase and develop- 
ment. 

These pioneers necessarily had much hard work to do in pro- 
moting and arranging for the event, and to do it, further, under 
the handicaps of slight encouragement of beagle fanciers gen- 
erally, and the ridicule of some of them in particular. But 



The Beagle in America 71 



backed by the courage of their convictions, and perhaps, thriv- 
ing on opposition, as true prophets are said to do, their initial 
meeting laid the solid foundation on which the subsequent 
superstructure of beagle field trials as an institution has been 
built, and to them the present day followers of beagle field trials 
owe a lasting debt of gratitude. 

In the following year, at its second annual meeting, the 
National Club offered in addition to the events of the year before 
a derby class, entries in which were limited to those one year 
old or under. The showing proved, as may have been ex- 
pected, disappointing, and in later years the age limit was 
changed to the one now used, with the result we now fre- 
quently find dogs of derby age winning in the all age classes, 
some of them, as shown by the records, even taking first place. 

The next year, 1892, marked the first appearance as a beagle 
field trial follower of Mr. James \V. Appleton, ever since a par- 
ticipant and one of the mainstays, and for a number of years 
the President of the National Beagle Club of America, and also 
Messrs. Pottinger Dorsey and C. Staley Doub, who like most 
beagle loving sportsmen, once coming to a field trial meeting 
to see for themselves, remained as active participants in its 
events for many years. And at the meeting of the National 
club in this year it is a pleasure to read in Mr. Turpin's ac- 
count, that although this was Mr. Dorsey's first appearance as 
a competing owner, the announcement by the judges of the 
award of the high honors, absolute winner, to his grand dog 
Lee II, was greeted in a most sportsmanlike manner by the 
hearty cheers of his competitors, a precedent, we may remark 
iii passing, almost universally characteristic of these meetings, 
ami of the spirit of high class sportsmanship there prevailing. 

Since the years of organization of the different clubs and the 
development of the sport from year to year are shown by the 
chronological tables in the appendix, it will suffice from this 
point on to make mention of such matters only generally. The 
Xew England Beagle Club, the second to organize, has failed 
to hold a meeting but three times, in 1902, 1907 and 1916. The 
Northwestern Beagle Club held several events in the early 
nineties, and after a lapse of several years, one in 1902. Its 
place in the West was taken then by the Western Beagle Club, 
successfully organized by Mr. Reno B. Cole in 1904, followed 
later in the West by the Buckeye Beagle Club. There will be 
noticed in the table some clubs which only held two or three 
meetings, but they are the exception which establish the rule of 



72 The Beagle in America 



permanency of these clubs, once properly organized and with a 
sufficient and proper field for their activities. And at this time, 
in addition to the clubs shown as having held field trials in 1919 
and prior years, there are four new ones in process of organi- 
zation, the Highland Beagle Club, having its principal member- 
ship and scene of operations in Ohio ; the Wolverine Beagle 
Club, located in Michigan ; the Sho-me Beagle Club, located in 
Missouri, and the Maryland Beagle Club, in that state. These 
clubs have been granted the necessary permission and license 
from the American Kennel Club for the holding of their events 
in the fall of 1920, and from knowledge of the thorough sports- 
men who are active in their affairs, we may safely predict for 
them the same measure of success enjoyed by their predecessors 
among such organizations. 

One of the few regrettable incidents of beagle field trials 
occurred at the meeting of the National Beagle Club in 1893, 
the much discussed Pade incident. Entered by his owner, Mr. 
Pottinger Dorsey, he defeated Mr. George F. Reed's Spot R in 
a noteworthy contest, of which Mr. Turpin remarks in his book 
that it has always been an enigma how a long bodied, short 
legged dog could show the speed he did. After the decisions 
had been announced, awarding first place to Pade, a protest 
was made, on the ground that he was not of the type called for 
by the standards of the club, and therefore ineligible to com- 
pete in its events. It was sustained by the club, and Spot R. 
was accordingly moved up to first place in the winners of record 
at the meeting. 

There resulted considerable controversy in the press over 
the matter, Mr. Dorsey expressing particular indignation over 
the claim made that Pade was not a pure bred beagle. In sub- 
stantiation of his claim he published a letter from the breeder 
of the dog, from whom he had purchased him, saying that Pade 
was a pure beagle, bred from stock imported from England. 
Mr. Dorsey's indignation was not lessened at all by the fact the 
reporter of the trials had published as a picture of Pade, what 
was evidently either a likeness of or very close to a daschund, 
and he produced from a photograph the picture of the dog here 
presented, showing him to be one of the bench legged type of 
beagles we have mentioned. 

In Mr. Dorsey's letter to the press regarding the matter, it 
is stated that his competitor, Mr. Reed, was asked to join in 
the protest, but declared emphatically he would have nothing 
to do with it "for the best farm in Rock Countv." From this 



The Beagle in America 



73 



action on the part of Mr. Reed, and the subsequent course of 
Mr. Dorsey, continuing his activities as a participant in the 
events of the club, we may well draw a lesson of lasting value 
to participants in beagle field trials. 

It must be understood that in what has been said as to the 
smaller competition in field trial events of the early days, there 
is no disposition whatever to reflect upon the work of the en- 




PADE 



tries, or to detract from the credit due them. We learn from 
Mr. Turpin's work that in 1898, an entry of fifty-six, outside of 
the packs, in the events of the National club, caused serious 
misgivings as to the possibility of completing the events sat- 
isfactorily during the week. From this it is very evident the 
entries of those times were given every thorough and pains- 
taking tests, and doubtless justified the awards of those days 
under competent judging, as well as at present, when we find 



74 The Beagle in America 



during 1919 total entries in open and derby classes of more 
than one hundred, satisfactorily handled in the same time. 

The development of pack stakes, one of the most enjoyable 
style of events at beagle field trials, affords one very desirable 
field for increased activities on the part of the different clubs 
jwhich, aside from the National Club, up to the present have 
given but little, and that rather sporadic, attention to them. 
This condition is rather difficult to understand, in view of the 
high esteem in which they are held by the members of the Na- 
tional Beagle Club of America, with which they have been a 
fixture of increasing importance and numbers, since the first 
one given in 1897, the first in the history of the sport. While 
we learn from the press reports of that time such an event was 
an innovation, the proposal to hold which then caused much 
discussion of its feasibility, with the record of accomplishment 
of the years following before the present day generation, there 
should be and it is believed there is, in fact, an awakening of 
interest in them, and it is confidently hoped the succeeding years 
will show them a fixture with the principal clubs. 

One ot the means of stimulating interest in the breed has 
been the futurity or breeders' stakes, the first of which we find 
given by the National Club and also by the New England Club, 
in 1896. They were continued by these clubs for a few years 
and then dropped, largely because due to the fact the age of 
the puppies when started was the same as in the derby classes, 
they were to some extent a repetition of the latter. 

They appeared on the annual program of field trial events 
again, however, in 1910, when the first one, offered by the 
American Field Publishing Company in 1908, to be run in 1910, 
and called The American Field Beagle Stake, was run on the 
grounds of the Western Beagle Club preceding its annual field 
trial meeting. This stake was continued by the American Field 
until including the year 1915, when it was discontinued, owing 
to lack of interest on the part of breeders, after having been 
run alternately by years at the meetings of the Central and 
Western clubs. 

During the years following the discontinuance of the Ameri- 
can Field Beagle Stake, however, there was apparently a wish 
on the part of beagle fanciers for a renewal of such a stake, as 
with the announcement of the Western Beagle Club of its pur- 
pose to give a futurity stake in the fall of 1918, and to continue 
it upon manifestation of sufficient interest to warrant so doing, 
the records of that club show an increasing interest in this event

in each year since. For the first one. to be run in 1918, the club

losing interest in them as futurity stake pros] ects, there were. 
i otwithstanding, thirty-three matured litters nominated. The 
1919 event being ottered at the same time, sixty-nine nomina- 
tions of completed litters were made for the 1919 stake, with 
twenty-five other nominations uncompleted by reason of dams 
not pro\ ir.g in whelp or losing their litters before time to com-

derives the funds for the prize money offered and the expense 
of handling and administering the affairs oi the stakes from 
year to year, and the expense of its running. The prize money 
is divided, an equal amount to the class for those thirteen inches 
and under, and to the class for those over thirteen and not over 
fifteen inches. These sums are again divided, a certain propor- 
tion to the breeders of the winners, and a somewhat larger 








WESTERN BEAGLE CLUB SPECIALTY SHOW — I gig 



The Beagle in America jg 



proportion to the owners of the winners, and both winners' and 
bleeders' money are again divided into first, second, third and 
fourth moneys. 

The owner of a winning puppy, whether its breeder or not, 
receives the winner's share going with the win, and the breeder 
receives the breeder's share, so that it is possible for the same 
owner to receive both winner's and breeder's money, if he wins 
with one from a litter which he bred and nominated. The in- 
crease of interest in these events apparently marks them for the 
continued support of breeders in the territory of this club's op- 
erations, and apparently has not lessened interest in the derby 
class events. This is shown by the fact that in the fall of I'M'', 
the question was submitted to men usually taking part in the 
club's annual trials, whether in view of the fact that many of 
the derby prospects were also eligible to the futurity stake, and 
the latter, consequently, more or less a repetition of the former, 
it would not be advisable to drop the derby classes, but the re- 
sponse was emphatically in the negative. 

Two other special events appeared on the field trial program 
in 1 ( H9, in the Classic, a stake offered by the Central club, and 
the Victory Stake of the National Club, both being for purses 
of unusual size, and proved of great interest, because of this 
feature, new to beagle field trials, as a matter of speculation as 
to what effect the giving of such events would have on the sport 
as a whole. Prior to this time, the prize moneys offered by the 
different clubs have been what might be termed nominal in 
amount, resulting in the elimination of any taint of commercial- 
ization of these events. It is a matter of doubt with many 
sportsmen whether a continuation of such stakes is for that 
reason for the best interest of beagle field trials. However, it 
is recognized that the year 1919, following the close of the 
World War, was one in which many abnormal conditions ex- 
isted, and the events mentioned may well be regarded as a form 
of celebration of the termination of the war and the opportunity 
to resume our normal activities, and in order then, whether 
they are to be continued or not. 

With the National club, also, there arose the question if the 
Victory Stake 'should be continued, Avhether it would be ad- 
visable to drop the derby classes, because of the heavy entry in 
all the classes and consequent inroads upon the allotted time of 
the club for its meetings. At a recent discussion of the matter 
at a meeting of the club, the unanimity of sentiment that 
whether the Victory Stake should be continued or not, the derby 



8o 



The Beagle in America 



classes would be continued as one of the club's fixed events, 
assures us that the question is in safe hands for the interest 
of the breed. 

Up to the year 1912 beagle field trial events had always been 
held on cottontail rabbits, although occasionally at the trials of 
the New England club hare had been found and used. Because 
of heats in the field trials being usually of the duration of per- 
haps half an hour's average, there was considerable discussion 




F. T. CH. STORM 



as to whether such tests afforded a satisfactory demonstration 
of a dog's ability from the standpoint of the endurance required 
for practical field work, and the contention was advanced by 
many hare hunters that the field trial beagle was to be found 
lacking, generally, in those requirements. 

Owners of beagles in the country where hare were found in 
numbers, and who were familiar with the ability of the field 
trial beagle to acquit itself creditably upon any kind of game, 
became restive under such criticisms, and in 1912 we find the 
Empire Beagle Club organized, and in 1914 the Northern Hare 



The Beagle in America 81 



Club, both having country in New York where the white hare 
is found, as their field of operations. Both clubs have since 
been giving at their annual meetings a stake in which the entries 
are put in competition on the hare, in addition to their other 
events on cottontails, with the result that many of the dogs 
which have been placed high in the cottontail trials have gone 
into competition in the events held on hare and come out with 
high honors. 

From the standpoint of endurance, the field trial beagle has 
often demonstrated its ability to hold its own in the hardest 
kind of going. In 1903, at a meeting of the Southern Beagle 
Club, a very fine full grown red fox was donated by Col. Gentry, 
of Lexington, Ky., for a fox chase by the beagles present. With 
the spread of news of the prospective event about the country, 
many fox hunters appeared at the appointed time, anticipating 
the pleasure of a good chase with their fox hounds after the 
beagles had been left so far behind they could no longer follow 
the trail. They were, however, treated to no small disappoint- 
ment, for the beagle pack, made up of eleven field trial bred 
beagles, many of which had never scented a fox before, took 
up the trail, and in a fast and furious race, lasting just thirty- 
two minutes from the time the dogs were laid on until the kill, 
at which not one of the two hundred odd horsemen were present, 
they killed the fox with all eleven dogs in at the death. 

In 1908 at the meeting of the National Club, after consider- 
able discussion of the ability of beagles to run a fox, a pack 
was made up consisting of Sir Novice, Sir Florid, Sir Garnet, 
Sister Tigress, Blatant, Olga, Clasher, Derbywood and Noble. 
The fox was given a five minute start, in which he went at 
least half a mile, and the pack followed like seasoned fox hounds, 
without a let-up, gaining on the fox steadily and finally driving 
out of hearing of all but the riders. Sister Novice and Thorn- 
field Noble led the pack, but when it came to working out the 
puzzles Somerset Olga was always equal to the test, and after 
a run of just sixty-one minutes the pack had the fox caught 
and killed. 

It is said by men of long experience with beagles upon both 
hare and cottontail rabbits that the habits and workings of the 
game ahead of the dogs are much the same, except that the hare 
runs on much longer swings or courses and does not go to 
cover or ground as the rabbit does, so that, given a beagle of 
stamina and endurance which can and does give a good account 
of himself on cottontails, he will be found giving an equally 



82 The Beagle in America 



good account of himself when turning his attention to pursuit 
of the hare. 

There is, however, undoubtedly this difference between the 
hare and the cottontail, that the former leaves the stronger 
scent, and it is consequently found the dogs after working out 
a check, having stronger scent to follow on the line, drive harder 
and tongue more freely, just as they are found to do on cotton- 
tails, but for shorter periods, when the rabbit has, in common 
parlance, become well "warmed up," and starts off for a good 
long swing. Let one used to hearing a pack of beagles drive 
rabbits get them on a hare, and he will find himself hearing 
them giving tongue, with the hare out of sight and several hun- 
dred yards ahead of them, much the same as if very close upon 
a rabbit or having him in sight. 

This is a matter entirely susceptible of what may for lack 
of better terminology, be termed a mechanical explanation, that 
the scent is naturally stronger, whether from the larger body, 
or foot scent from the larger foot pad of the hare, or perhaps 
both. James McAleer, veteran breeder, and handler and judge 
of beagles, tells the writer that he has hunted beagles and 
judged them in nine different states, and on five different va- 
rieties of the game, in order as to size, the so-called sand rab- 
bit of Texas, the smallest ; the cottontail rabbit, the Texas 
swamp rabbit, the mountain hare, and finally the white hare, 
snd that the speed with which beagles can drive them and the 
steadiness with which they carry the line giving tongue, and 
the amount of voice they give, runs in direct proportion to the 
size of the game. Speaking of this, he produced the foot pads 
of the five varieties mentioned, showing that they run in size 
in the order mentioned, as proof of his statement. 

With the passing of the years, in addition to the improvement 
in field work of more finished quality which has been noted, 
has come about a marked improvement in type, as a result of 
the well directed efforts of the various field trial clubs in their 
primary field of usefulness, the improvement of the breed. It 
is also noteworthy that the former generally entertained belief 
or the part of many beagle men that a show beagle was one 
thing and a field beagle another, and the two qualities could 
not be successfully combined, has by the results accomplished 
been dispelled, at least with students of the records and vanished 
into the mists of the past. 

The pioneers and first importers of dogs of note, Mr. Turner 
with Warrior and Sam, General Rowett with Rosy, and Mr. 



84 The Beagle in America 



Elmore with Ringwood, while unable by reason of the lack of 
field trials in their day to preserve the field qualities of their 
dogs as a matter of record, were active exhibitors in the shows 
of their time, and in the accounts of both field trials and shows 
of the succeeding years, we find the descendants of these early 
importations taking high rank. The National Beagle Club of 
America, at its second meeting held in 1891, held a specialty 
show for beagles, an event which has been a fixture at their 
annual meetings since that time, in furtherance of the purpose 
expressed in its constitution, to improve the breed in both type 
and field qualities. 

The importations of the gentlemen mentioned, well selected 
with a view to type, as well as field qualities, as demonstrated 
by their records after being brought to America, both as indi- 
vidual performers and as producers, are coming to be more 
and more appreciated by beagle fanciers, who are showing an 
increasing interest in type as well as field performance. 

There is. it appears, this to be said of the difference in condi- 
tions existing in America and England, that with the moist cli- 
mate there and consequent better scenting conditions, breeders 
there have not been obliged to give the attention to nose in their 
hounds which has been necessary on the part of breeders here, 
where the trailing conditions are for the greater part of the 
year much more unfavorable. Our English friends have, there- 
fore, been able to concentrate their attention more on improve- 
ment in type, and in improvement of legs, neck and shoulders 
and feet in their hounds, items of the greatest importance in 
equipping them for the field work required of them. The com- 
bination of the blood lines of these hounds and their progeny, 
with the American bred hound developed in the item of nose, 
has proved a very fortunate one and resulted in the production 
of individuals of a high degree of excellence in both respects. 

Another marked difference, due to the conditions existing in 
the two countries, is found in the individual requirements of 
the sportsmen themselves. In England, with its large estates, 
and rights in the game and its pursuit confined to the few, 
attention has been centered very largely on packs and pack 
work, and very little on individual hound work. In America, 
however, with the exception of the National Beagle Club of 
America, numbering in its membership many proprietors of 
large kennels who keep sufficient hounds for the selection and 
makeup of packs, the membership of the field trial clubs, and 
the admirers of the beagle generally, is made up of men owning 



The Beagle in America 



85 



only one or two generally, and in some cases three or four 
hounds, with which they are privileged, under conditions pre- 
vailing here, to hunt in the neighborhood where they reside. 
This has resulted in the sportsmen here giving more attention 
to individual hound work, both generally and in the field trial 
events of the different clubs, the results of which are followed 
as a guide in breeding in the effort to produce hounds suitable 
to the individual requirements existing. 




GEORGE F. REED 
WITH HARKER AND MINNET 



With something like over a quarter of a century of consistent 
effort for improvement of the breed in the East, prior to the 
organization of the Western Beagle Club, the first in the West 
to prove permanent, the improvement in type, while steady, 
has been more marked in the case of the hounds there, for the 
obvious reason that greater room for improvement existed. The 
first organized activities of this club along that line began in 
1908, with the holding of its first specialty show under the rules 



86 The Beagle in America 



of the American Kennel Club. Since that time, a specialty show 
has been a fixed event in its annual program, and it is impos- 
sible for anyone not a regular attendant at its trials during the 
period covered by its operations, to realize the improvement in 
type resulting, until at the present time the interest in the show 
ring events is fully as keen as those in the field. And what is 
true of hounds in the East is true also there, that this has been 
effected without detracting in any way from field qualities, and 
the same hounds will be found taking high awards both in the 
show ring and in the field. 

This improvement, both in type and in more finished field 
performance, has been more noticeable since about the year 
1913. In the fall of 1911, Mr. Edward S. Herancourt, of Cin- 
cinnati, Ohio, a lifelong admirer of hounds, attended the meet- 
ing of the Western Beagle Club to see his first beagle field trial, 
and became an instant convert. In the same fall he attended 
the meeting of the National Club, and there purchased of the 
Somerset Beagles the dog Somerset Clinker, a son of Ch. Imp. 
Clasper, previously mentioned. This dog was brought West, 
and crossed on the dams of the Hempfield Little Dandy and 
Florienne blood, of which there was much in that territory, pro- 
duced hounds of much improved type, and somewhat more on 
the line trailing order in the field. 

Results of this are shown in Ch. Afton Lady J., by Somerset 
Clinker and Belle Afton, the latter a several times field trial 
winner and show champion, and a daughter of the two men- 
tioned, and Rock City Princess, a field champion and daughter 
of Somerset Clinker from a daughter of Hempfield Little Dandy 
and Kate Favor, a litter sister of Florienne. The combination 
of these blood lines has been a very popu&r and successful one 
in the West, one notable instance of which is the field trial 
champion, Afton Goldie, one of unusual consistency, sired by 
Afton's Uncle Sam from Afton Queen, a litter sister of Afton 
Lady J. and full blood sister of Rock City Princess, in addition 
to a considerable number of other winners of this blood which 
will be noted in the tables appended. 

' Unfortunately for the interest of the breed in the West, how- 
ever, Clinker died after being mated only a few times. Mr. 
Herancourt then purchased of the Wheatley Kennels the dog 
Wheatley Factor, a son of Imp. Lasher and Imp. Frantic. This 
dog was also used extensively in the West, and brought about a 
further improvement and interest in type, and his blood lines 
blended well in the matter of field quality also. We have, how- 



The Beagle in America 



87 



ever, to turn to the East for the most noteworthy instance of 
this combination of blood lines, in Fannhall Topsy, which be- 
came a field trial champion in her derby year, 1918, a most re- 
markable performance, and one of the few, if not the only instance 
of its kind, in the history of beagle field trials, and in 1919 
won the great Victory Stake at the meeting of the National 
Club, She is a daughter of Wheatley Gambler, a son of Imp. 
Lasher and Wheatley Gladness, and her sire, therefore, a half 
brother of Wheatley Factor, and her dam, Tempest 11, is a 
daughter of Hempfield Little Dandy and Kate Favor, litter sister 
of Florienne.

It is unfortunate this cross was discovered toward the end of 
the period of usefulness of Tempest as a matron. One of the in- 
dications of a successful blending of individuals and blood lines 
essential to an outstanding cross, always to be found in- the 



88 The Beagle in America 



most noted instances, is the uniformity of the .progeny. Ex- 
amples of this are found in the cross of Hempfield Little Dandy 
with Florienne and Kate Favor, of Piedmont Judge, with cer- 
tain dams of the Piedmont pack; of Sir Florist Boy with the 
Sir Sister Beagles, and others, and showing here in the fact that 
in the one litter from which Fannhall Topsy came, there were 
two other field trial winners of high quality, as well as another 
lost at the age of about one year, said by Mr. Frank E. Stewart, 
the breeder, to have been as good as the others. However, from 
this litter, we have at least for our future guidance the benefit 
of the showing afforded by the blood lines involved in this mat- 
ing. 

Another daughter of Hempfield Little Dandy and Florienne, 
then known as Kishwaukee Judy, but later registered as Pied- 
mont Judy, passed into the ownership of the Piedmont Park at 
an early age, and crossed with the stud dogs in use there, was 
a producer of many winners. Prominent in the blood lines of 
many of the field trial winners of the later years is found the 
blood of the Thorp Satchville pack of England, notably among 
others many through Cirencester Fencer, a dog which made a 
great record on the bench in both England and America, and 
which was the objective of earnest efforts to return him to Eng- 
land after being brought to this country. Yet another Eastern 
dog prominent individually and through his progeny in both 
show and field records is Somerset Watchman, already men- 
tioned, and others which will be disclosed by examination of 
the tables to be found in the appendix. 

The most recent instance of the successful production of 
hounds of combined field and show quality is to be found in the 
record of the performance of Imp. Ch. Stoke Place Sapper, 
a winner of high bench honors in England previous to his im- 
portation to America by the Wheatley Kennels, including the 
Champion Cup at the Petersboro show in 1913, and of a bench 
show championship in America since his arrival here. He has 
already to his credit a considerable number of show and field 
trial winners, including the winner's dogs at the specialty show 
of the National Club in 1919, and the Westminister Kennel 
Club show at New York in 1920. He has produced, also, sev- 
eral winners in field trials in Eastern territory in strong com- 
petition in the fall of 1919. One of these, Wheatley Costly, 
although of only derby age, took third place in a class of twenty- 
six starters at the National meeting for bitches over thirteen

and not over fifteen inches, and reserve winners at the West- 
minister Kennel Club of this year, and must be specially men- 
tioned as one of an unusually high quality both in the field and 
on the bench. 

Reference to the breeding of the prominent winning families 
shown in the tables given will disclose numerous other winning 
families and crosses of a high order of merit, some of the most

noteworthy of which are the progeny of Piedmont Judge, Rose- 
dale Tipperary, Jupiter of Birchbrae and others in the East, and 
in the West Afton's Uncle bam, one of the greatest producing

family, and Alibi Billy, a son of Driver, of Thorp Satchville 
blood, from Blue Diamond, a line bred Blue cap, with the dif- 
ferent dams of varying blood lines from which these dogs have 
produced many winners. The evidence of prepotency in such 
sires, shown by winners tracing to them in succeeding genera-

tions, should and it is hoped will prove of value in the guid- 
ance of breeders in the future. 

Viewing at this time the development of specialty clubs and 
increased interest in the breed which has taken place in the two 
decades which have passed since the writing of the work of Mr. 
Turpin and Mr. Cole, and seeing our favorites stand today on 
a par with the pointer and setter in the estimation of sports- 
men, the force of Mr. Turpin's statement made two decades 
ago that "beagle interests rest today upon a firmer foundation 
than ever before, and that the little hound bids fair in time to 
become the most popular of sporting hounds," may be more 
fully appreciated. 

But let the breeders of the present day remember that the 
results accomplished have been due to the foundation so well 
laid, and to the intelligent efforts constantly made in the mean- 
time by the men prominent in the sport and the specialty clubs, 
and the uniformly high plane upon which they have conducted 
their activities. And if the recording of what has taken place 
in the past, and the bringing of the high ideals of the more 
prominent sportsmen of the fraternity of the early days as well 
as of the present, and the records of the breed and other prac- 
tical information afforded, to the attention and knowledge of the 
present day followers of the merry little hound, serves its de- 
sired purpose of assistance in carrying on along the same lines 
the successful efforts of the past, the compiler and the gentle- 
men mentioned who have wrought faithfully with him in the 
production of this work will feel that their labors have been 
Avell rewarded.

FIELD TRIALS 

Selection, Preparation and Handling 

BY 

JAMES McALEER 

SEWICKLEY, PA. 



DURING the thirty years which have passed since the first 
holding of a beagle field trial in America, it has been my 
good fortune to have bred, trained and handled in such 
events a considerable number of winners. I have been 
asked to contribute to this work an article on the selection, 
preparation and handling of beagles at field trials, but before 
taking up the subject matter proper of this chapter, I desire to 
say that while my activities have been along field trial lines, I 
want to go on record as expressing my belief that the attention 
given to type by the show giving clubs must be accorded a 
full measure of credit, along with the work of the different 
field trial organizations, in the great improvement which is 
noted in the breed since my first association with it. 

The improvement in field quality has gone on steadily, but 
the improvement in type has, I think, kept abreast of it, and 
at this time, nearly two decades since I contributed to the for- 
mer book of Mr. Cole on this subject, I want to again say, as 
I did then, without any desire to detract from the merits of 
the dogs of the early field trial period, that there have been 
such improvements in field qualities in the meantime that many 
of the dogs capable of winning then would hardly get beyond 
the first series now. And along with this improvement in the 
field qualities has gone equal improvement in type, well marked 
in the leading field trial strains of the present day. I said in 
my former article that there existed no necessity for a bench 
show type and a field trial type. History has verified my be- 
lief, and in the reports of shows and trials of the present we 
find the same dogs taking high rank in both, and it is now well 
demonstrated that it is possible and practicable to breed and 



The Beagle in America g$ 



develop a beagle of combined type and field quality of a high 
degree of merit. 

The beagle, essentially a limiting dog, appeals to the man in 
whom the love of the hunt is strong, and while among them 
there are those with regard only for the size of tin- bag of a 
day's hunt, there are many with whom that item is a secondary 
consideration, and who derive their pleasure chiefly, from asso- 
ciation with nature in the open and the work of their dogs. 
These are the type of sportsmen who have built up the institu- 
tion of beagle field trials to its high standing of the present 
day, and it is through this, one of the grandest of outdoor sports, 
that the attention of sportsmen who enjoy the field work 
of a high class dog, has been attracted in increasing numbers 
with the years, until these events have come to rank second in 
importance to none, and the beagle stands today on an equal 
footing with the pointers and setters in the estimation and 
esteem of sportsmen. 

One reason for this, doubtless, is to be found in the fact that 
game for the holding of beagle field trials may be found in 
almost any locality. This, and the fact that the work and ex- 
pense of training and handling beagles is so much less, and 
that with a little experience sportsmen can successfully train 
and handle their dogs in a field trial meeting, have combined 
in making it so attractive as a sport coming within the reach of 
those even in moderate circumstances, and thus bringing about 
the great increase of interest in these events. And since, al- 
though it is the work the dogs show themselves to the judges 
to be capable of doing which determines the awards, there arc 
many ways in which their handlers may render them assistance. 
and indeed, it is their duty to do so, so long as they do not 
transgress the running rules, it will be the object of this article 
to impart for the benefit of the beginner such information as 
I may be able, for his benefit and assistance in the selection of 
his prospect for field trial honors, and its preparation and han- 
dling while under judgment. 

First in order, of course, comes the selection of a prospective 
entry having the necessary natural qualifications, and aside from 
those essential in any dog which is to handle game successfully, 
whether as a hunting dog or as a field trial dog. the prospect, if it 
is to justify the owner's expectations, must have what is gener- 
ally termed the spirit of competition. He must be able to carry 
the line and Avork out the checks and turns, and possess the nose 
and brains and hunting sense to do these things, and he must 



g6 The Beagle in America 



be a good searcher and do it intelligently, and if he can, he is 
a good shooting dog. But while a good field trial dog will also 
be a good shooting dog, the converse, as applied to the good 
shooting dog, does not follow, unless he has the spirit of com- 
petition. 

We must remember that there is a vast difference in the con- 
ditions under which a dog goes down under judgment at a 
field trial, and those under which it finds itself when hunting 
afield with its owner and his friends. There it is not under 




the often occurring handicap at field trials of the gallery follow- 
ing too closely, and down for a limited time only, during which 
it must show its best constantly, and where to be successful it 
must have this fighting spirit of competition to enable it to do 
its best in defeating its competitor at the critical time. After the 
thirty years of what is now field trial history, results of which 
have enabled men interested in the sport to make the proper 
breeding selections, there is generally sufficient of it to be found 
in the properly bred beagle of today. 

But while this spirit is now well bred into the modern beagle, 
much remains to be done by its owner or handler, starting with 



The Beagle in America 



97 



it as a puppy prospect, to develop and bring it out properly. 
The sportsmen who know and understand their dogs need not 
be told that there exists a mutual understanding, or reciprocity 
or feeling or spirit between the handler and his dog, and as the 
latter as the pupil, takes from the handler, very naturally, the 
teaching of precept and example, unless the owner or handler, 
when afield with his charges, sets them the example of in- 
dustry and diligence, he is apt to soon find them, like himself, 
Micawber like, waiting for something to turn up and, here as 




CH. BELLE AFTON 



with all other bad habits to which both the human and canine 
family are prone, an ounce of prevention is worth the proverbial 
pound of cure. It is not the business of the handler to find 
the game for his dogs, but he must school himself to keep on 
the move and show himself interested in the search for game, 
and if he will do this the youngsters catch the spirit from him 
and soon become the merry and industrious searchers we all 



q8 The Beagle in America 



love to see, and which they must be if they are to prove worthy 
of a place in the records of field trial winneis. 

An incident at a meeting of the National Beagle Club in 1911, 
while the candidates perhaps carried it to an extreme, will serve 
to illustrate what I have termed this spirit of competition. In 
the class for fifteen inch all age dogs, Afton's Uncle Sam and 
Belray Blue Boy, two which had done previous winning and' 
subsequently became champions, were down together, and 
while searching at a check, Sam struck the line, and as he was 
gathering himself to declare and get away, Blue Boy, indus- 
triously feeling for the line and with an eye on Sam all the while, 
instantly grasped the situation, and making a dive for the loca- 
tion, ran into Sam and shouldered him aside in an effort to get 
the line and get away in front, when Sam promptly declared 
war and there was a pitched battle right on the field. This, as 
I say, was carrying it to an extreme, but it is an illustration of 
the intense desire and determination a field trial dog, to be suc- 
cessful, must have to find the line and get away in the lead at 
checks, and when away, to keep the lead over his competitor. 

It is common experience that younger dogs working with 
those older and more experienced will be found depending 
more or less on the latter, and for this reason it has always 
seemed better practice to me to work derby candidates in a 
pack or by themselves. In this way they acquire the neces- 
sary independence and disposition to rely on their own efforts 
more quickly, and also develop their starting qualities better, 
when they do not have the wisdom of the old dogs to aid them 
in getting a rabbit started. When once they are well started 
at searching and show some ability to handle the game, the 
next step is if possible to take them out with an older dog, one 
that is entirely reliable and true and without too much speed. 
The absence of speed in the older dog enables the young dog 
to keep in on the work and at the same time pay some attention 
to the trail. And again, if the young dog has the necessary 
field trail ambition and desire, even in the embryo, to keep up 
with the pack or bracemate, too much speed in the latter makes 
it necessary for the youngster to center its efforts at keeping 
in, and may result in its becoming mouthy, and once this habit 
is acquired it is one very difficult to rid the dog of. Take young 
puppies afield with their mother, when quite small, and we see 
them crying along behind her, merely because they cannot keep 
up. That is the natural tendency, and it is one which is always 
with the dog as it grows, and as hunting sense develops, if a 



The Beagle in America 



99 



youngster is worked continually with dogs of superior speed, 
it becomes noisy simply as a matter of cause and effect, or else 
loses the necessary ambition to lead. 

When the candidate goes down at a field trial event, if it is 
to be successful, it must be prepared to use its speed in main- 
taining a lead over its competitor. Do not understand me that 
speed is the prevailing or determining factor with a judge who 
understands his business. It is not. But judges base their de- 
cision on what they see of a brace while under judgment, there- 
fore, since if in other respects two are of equal merit, the dog

which shows ability to lead his competitor will get the deci- 
sion, it is of great importance to develop what speed your pros- 
pect may have, so that while giving necessary attention to 
other features of his work, he will always be trying to cut out 
the work and do the leading, and will fight his hardest before 
surrendering it. To be the right sort of field trial dog, he should 
govern his speed according to conditions, not trying to use 
more speed than his nose and the scent permit in keeping to the 
line, but nevertheless using all the speed he has consistent with 
those factors. 

This necessary element of speed in a field trial prospect should 
be a matter of gradual development. He should be taken out 



IOO 



The Beagle in America 



first Avith those or with one of less speed than himself, so that 
he will find he can lead, and not be discouraged or get the idea 
from being worked with one of superior speed that he cannot 
lead. If this is done, he finds he can lead, and if he has the 
proper field trial spirit or form in this respect, he will find him- 
self liking it and forming the habit. Working in this way, as 
he shows ability and desire to lead and still perform his work 
on the game properly, give him from time to time dogs a little 
faster, but which he can still lead and not do it at the expense 




ALIBI BILLY 



of proper handling of his game. In this way the speed can be 
gradually developed so that when the time comes for putting 
him in competition at the trials, he will have acquired the habit, 
and with it the desire and disposition to put into his work the 
speed and spirit of competition he will find necessary there. 

Another essental element of preparation and of almost equal 
importance, especially with dogs of a nervous or somewhat 
timid disposition, is to get them accustomed to working in 
strange surroundings and with strange dogs, as they will have 



The Beagle in America 



to do when taken to a field trial meeting. In the human family 
most of us realize one time or another the difficulty of being 
called upon at some time or another to do in some strange place 
and surroundings, and among strange faces, something we do 
right along at home with no feeling of nervousness or self con- 
sciousness attendant upon it. Here again, with dogs, it is the 
same with many of them as it is in the human species. There 
are some, exceptions doubtless, of sufficient boldness and in- 
dependence, to go for the first time from home training and 




F. T. CH. DANDY S NITA 



hunting grounds, to a field trial meeting and there put their 
best foot forward under the strange and different conditions 
found there. 

But with the great majority of field trial prospects, and espe- 
cially those of derby age, which of necessity under the condi- 
tions are under two years of age. and sometimes but little over 



102 The Beagle in America 



a year old, they should during the process of preparation be 
given all possible chances of accustoming themselves to strange 
surroundings and conditions, so that when put down in compe- 
tition, they are not handicapped by the sensation of nervousness 
or strangeness of surroundings, but will proceed to put their 
best effort into the necessarily brief time allotted them. In 
the territory of all field trial clubs there are enthusiasts living 
close to each other, enabling them to put their dogs into a 
crate and carry them, either on the train or by vehicle, to each 
other's homes, where they can be run in different pairings 
with dogs strange to each other, thus accustoming themselves 
to running in strange company and in strange surroundings, 
and also getting accustomed to being transported from one 
place to another, all of these being conditions necessarily con- 
nected with attending and competition in field trials. Then 
when the important time comes and the candidate goes down in 
competition, these things are more or less of an old story with 
him, and he will be much more apt to immediately get down to 
business in the highly important task of making a good first 
impression on the dignified gentlemen he will find watching 
him to see if he is to be found worthy a place in the summaries. 
Another equally important element of preparation is the con- 
dition of the dog. When we consider what a delicate and finely 
adjusted organ of sense the nose of a beagle must be to enable 
him to carry the scent of the rabbit, probably the lightest and 
most evanescent scent a game trailing dog is called on to handle, 
and to do it with the snap and speed we look for in the proper 
kind of field trial beagle, and how easily it may be affected by 
some slight disorder of the dog's system, the importance of hav- 
ing the dog in good condition in every way from this stand- 
point, as well as from that of the necessary endurance for the 
work, will be apparent. Just as he cannot drive faster than 
his nose will permit, neither can he go fast or long with su- 
perfluous flesh. This, however, must not be reduced, with a 
dog high in flesh, at the expense of weakening the dog. He 
must be worked, not starved down. Hard work and plenty of 
it will get rid of the fat and reduce the flesh and harden the 
muscles, but while this is being done the dog must have suffi- 
cient of the right kind of food to keep up his strength, and so 
gradually work him down to a smooth, hard condition, able to 
go out and take his work and plenty of it and be ready for more. 
It is the better practice when working out dogs in preparation 
to watch them closely, and always take them up before they 



The Beagle in America 



IOJ 



have begun to slow down. This has the double advantage of 
getting them in the habit of getting in as much hunt as they 
can, before the time they know by experience the unwelcome 
horn or call will inevitably summon them to come reluctantly 
to the leads, and also gives the handler a line on the endurance 
they are showing and whether they are coming into condition 
as they should, so that he may govern himself accordingly in 
their preparation. 




ROSEDALE TIPPERRARY 



With the candidate properly trained and conditioned comes 
the all important time when the brace in which it is drawn is 
called and it goes down under judgment. Here, as human na- 
ture is much the same wherever it must be considered as a fac- 
tor, the first impression is of great importance. It always looks 
good to a judge to see a dog start off busily and searching in- 
telligently, something which should be well developed and 



104 



The Beagle in America 



looked after in the training period. And it is well if possible to 
have the dog about on a lead for a short time at' least, before 
it will be called, giving it a little exercise, and also the benefit 
of a little stirring up of enthusiasm from hearing the preceding 
brace during their running. If, however, the dog does not get 
away at once about his work, or shows lack of disposition to 
take to the briars or cover or the course the judges indicate, 
here is where the handler can help the chances of his charge 
by starting briskly away and urging the dog along and getting 
him started at once. It is also of importance, especially with a 
derby age dog, to get it out in front and away from the crowd, 
where there is nothing to distract attention from the work ex- 
pected.

This applies more especially, of course, to derby than to all 
age dogs, which are expected to get away at once and about 
their work. The dogs are now cast off and the course indi- 
cated by the judges, and here is where the novice or amateur 
must be prepared to handle himself as much or more so, per- 
haps, in many cases, than his dog. Put your effort into getting 
your dog started working on the desired course, and when this 
is done, then handle yourself and let him alone. It is his work, 
not yours, on which the judges will base their awards. If he 
is worthy of a place, he knows where to look for the game, and 
how to handle it when afoot, and the more you urge or attempt 



The Beagle in America 105 



to direct him, the more you interfere with his work and hinder 
his chances. 

One thing judges should take largely into consideration, 
since the object of a field trial is to distinguish for the benefit 
of the breed the best dogs competing, as hunting dogs, is the 
disposition to search industriously for game and the ability to 
do so intelligently, shown by the dogs in competition. There- 
fore, do not be in too much of a hurry about starting a rabbit. 
If the grounds are properly selected, your dog will have plenty 
of opportunity on game, and you should let the judges, wher- 
ever possible, see that he is an industrious and intelligent 
searcher, and if they know their business it will be a strong 
point for your dog with them, and furthermore, if he has spent 
a few minutes of his time ranging and searching, he is better 
prepared to run a rabbit when one is found. 

Soon a rabbit is started, either by one of the dogs or perhaps 
jumped by someone. Perhaps it is seen sitting, and in this 
event the judges will direct the handlers to take up their dogs 
and not let them see the rabbit while it is started and getting 
out of sight. When you are called to get your dog up to show 
him on game, carefully avoid any appearance or manifestation 
of excitement, because it is contagious with your dog. If he 
doesn't come at once to call, get him as quickly and quietly as 
you can. Continued calling or whistling only serves to give the 
judges the impression of disobedience in the dog. Keep coo\ 
and bring him up quietly and don't let him get a sight of the 
rabbit getting away, as it will only tend to excite and unsteady 
him in the great majority of cases. 

Now the rabbit has been bolted, or the dogs have been 
brought where one has been seen getting away, and the time 
lias come for your dog to show what it can do in handling the 
game. A jumped rabbit, whether from fright in being hustled 
unceremoniously from his comfortable squat, or from the fact 
that the faster he runs — and he is generally doing his level best 
at such times — the less spread there is of the hind feet, which 
leave the scent, and consequently the less scent, leaves less 
scent in the first three or four rods of his course than he does 
further along. Therefore, work your dog out a short distance 
to and across the line, and here again be careful to avoid the sin 
of overhandling. For one thing, you may penalize yourself with 
the judges by confusing the other dog, and even if you are suc- 
cessful in laying your dog on by your efforts, it deprives your 
dog of the greater credit he might have obtained if he did it 



jo6 



The Beagle in America 



under their eyes without your help. Keep your head cool and 
"don't rock the boat," and if the other handler is handicapping 
his dog by overhandling, let him do it. It isn't hurting you one 
bit under a competent judge. But if he does it to the extent 
it is confusing or interfering with your dog, make your objec- 
tion promptly to the judges. That is your privilege and duty, 
and they will protect your rights promptly. 




F. B. Z1M Ml R 



When the line has been found, if the other dog is first to find 
and your dog does not get in promptly, you must hark him in 
quickly, because the judges want to see them in competition. 
Now they are away on the line, and judges, handlers and gal- 
lery follow watching the work. You should keep up as closely 
with the dogs as possible without crowding them. A common 
trick of the rabbit after getting a good lead is to double for a 
short distance and squat. By following closely, if this seems 
to be the case, when the others come up, don't hesitate to speak 



The Beagle in America 



107 



out and ask them to keep back a reasonable distance. That is 
your right as a handler. The dogs will swing and cast at the 
check, but it is noticed they will seldom swing behind the crowd, 
where the rabbit is apt to be as not, and if the gallery is allowed 
to get too close the result may be a run to a loss, where if they 




W. A. POWEL 



RAY A. THAYEK 



are held back the rabbit will be started again. The importance 
of giving your dog a sufficient measure of protection on this 
point cannot be over-estimated. If there is a competent marshal 
in attendance he will attend to it, but if there is not or he doesn't 



io8 The Beagle in America 



attend to it. act yourself, and act promptly. Your time down 
is necessarily short, and hesitation on this point may result in 
a loss in the work of the brace, and deprive you of a chance in 
the next series. 

By following the dogs closely when on game and keeping a 
sharp outlook for the rabbit, and keeping it in sight as much as 
possible, you are often in position to be of material assistance 
to your dog and do it very properly, through knowing where 
the game is or the direction it has taken at a bad check. The 
dog of intelligence and used to its handler when at a baffling 
check will look at him oftener than he realizes in mute appeal 
for help in solving the puzzle. We have all had the experience 
in hunting our dogs, and it is the same in field trial events. Any 
form of jockeying or taking unfair advantage of the other han- 
dler in any way cannot be too strongly condemned. But a field 
trial event is a competitive affair, and the handler owes it to 
himself and his charge to help the latter in the use of its intelli- 




F. T. CH. YOUNG TIPPECANOE 



gence in any way he can fairly. If you know the course of the 
game or where it is, by standing apart a little and taking a 
quick step or two, or even looking intently in the right direc- 
tion, if you have properly trained your dogs before the trials, 
so they know the meaning of it, you can many times help them 
to make the proper swing and get on the right course again. 

Another respect in which a handler can be of material assist- 
ance, and which is also very much appreciated by the judges, 
is in knowing where his dog is and keeping it on the indicated 
course. If it is a case of a jumped rabbit, and your dog is not 
where you can get him in quickly, or for that matter, in any 



The Beagle in America 109 



case where the judges desire the dogs worked to the line of a 
rabbit, the scent is getting colder all the time, and you are 
also losing some of the valuable allotted time both for yourself 
and the other handler. Again, the other dog may start a rab- 
bit, and if your dog is not close by, or his competitor chances 
to be one of the kind without voice of much volume or carry, 
vour dog may not hear him getting away, and lose an opportu- 
nity for a showing on game, or perhaps be discredited for re- 
fusing to hark in to the other dog. Where one sense, like scent, 
is highly developed as it is in the beagle, another such as hear- 
ing is apt to be much less developed, and a dog which at the 
time another opens happens to be intent on a search, is liable 
not to hear the other dog. So if for any reason your dog does 
not get in quickly, get to him quickly and quietly as possible 
and get him in as soon as you can do it. 

It often happens a check will come in the vicinity of a hole 
or other safe retreat, such as perhaps, a hollow tree or log. Here 
is where I believe it is of considerable value and importance to 
have your dogs trained to mark a hole. The existence of a 
hole in the vicinity of the end of a chase makes an excellent 
alibi for a brace which has run to a loss. But the fact it is there 
is not conclusive evidence at all that the rabbit has taken cover 
at that place. But if your dog is trained to mark hole, and 
does so, the question of whether it is a loss or completed chase 
is effectually settled, and your dog gets the credit for the per- 
formance, and further, by doing so, if the rabbit is in fact holed, 
if your dog marks, he gets credit for a completed run, which he 
might not get with a judge who had to be shown, rf he did not 
do so. 

I want to say further, that just as a dog to be a success in 
held trial competition must know and understand the ways of 
the rabbit in order to handle it properly and receive his proper 
meed of credit while under judgment, so the man who is to be 
a successful and competent handler of beagles, must himself 
study and acquire a practical knowledge of the ways of a rab- 
bit. While the rabbit family has many characteristics and nat- 
ural tendencies in common, we find them often differing widely 
in the same locality, from the creeping twister which no brace 
can catch or make a respectable showing on, to a straightaway 
flyer on which a brace of good dogs will go away on for a race 
the spectators will be talking about for years afterwards. Again, 
occasionally a brace will strike a rabbit which seemingly has 
to do' just so much dodging and twisting about where the cover 



110 



The Beagle in America 



is convenient for the purpose, and a pair of good ones will not 
be able to accomplish much with him, and if it happens toward 
the end of their time, and especially if they have not previously 
had a chance on a good runner, or for that matter, if they have, 
although not to so great an extent, their showing will not ap- 
pear so well in the press reports, or possibly if the judges are 
not as competent as they might be, they do not get the credit 
they should have there, when they have done all that was pos- 
sible under the conditions. They may about the time they are 
ordered up have the rabbit convinced it is about time to be get- 
ting away from that locality, and the next brace down, no better, 




SIR FLORIST 



perhaps not as good, go on with him and make a good showing. 
Before closing this contribution to this work, which is in- 
tended as a handbook of practical information for the newcom- 
ers in the beagler ranks, as well as of the history of the breed, 
I would like to digress from the main line of my subject to call 
attention to the difference under which dogs compete in field 
trial events, and the conditions when out for a day's hunt with 
the owner and favored friends privileged to accompany him. 
With new clubs springing up each year or two, and only some 
four or five to six weeks available in the fall for field trials, each 
club can have but few days for its events without conflicting 



The Beagle in America 



with the dates of other clubs, and with the increasing entries of 
each year, the time of each brace is very limited. Again, good 
reporters of such events are scarce, and there are not enough 
of them available to cover all these events while they are under 
way. Instances are common in the reports where one brace is 
reported as running two or three rabbits to a loss, when in fact, 
it has been a case of a check and the rabbit started again, and 
they have been on the same rabbit all the time, and oftentimes 
reported as having run to a loss at the end, where in fact, it 
was merely a check, and they were ordered up preparatory to 
starting the work of the next brace. 

Therefore, I would say to those who have never attended a 
field trial, in reading the reports, take these things into con- 
sideration, and do not get a mistaken impression of this one 
of the greatest of sports afield it is the privilege of man to 
enjoy, and so deprive yourselves of the pleasure you will be 
afforded if you will attend a field trial meeting and see it for 
yourself. Get yourself one or two good ones, if you haven't 
them already, prepare them properly, and join your nearest club 
and enter and run your dogs in its events, and if you are of 
the type of the men who have built up beagle field trials as an 
institution to its present high standing, you will realize the 
meaning and follow the common saying of one of the live or- 
ganizations of the present day, "those who come to see remain 
for aye."

COTTONTAIL FIELD TRIALS 
AND JUDGING 

BY 

LE PAGE CRONMILLER 

LAUREL, MD. 



I RECEIVED a letter a few days ago from Mr. Prentice with 
a request that I answer the following: "Give your opinion 
of the requirements of a field trial beagle, and also state 
your ideas how a beagle field trial on rabbits should be 
judged." 

Now what I shall say is only my opinion and poorly ex- 
pressed. If, however, I can say anything that will be of interest 
or advantage to my brother beaglers, or give any thought that 
will be of any use to a single lover of the "little hound," then 
I am perfectly willing to stand the "knocks" this article may 
bring forth. It is not well for all to think alike, therefore, there 
are many who will disagree with me, and in such case all they 
have to do is to write a better definition of a field trial beagle, 
and a clearer and more explicit way to judge a beagle when in 
competition, and we beagle lovers will devour every word of it. 
A field trial beagle must have brains (which also includes a 
level head), nose, hunting ability, speed, aggressiveness or a 
desire to get there first, a fighting, pushing ahead nature or 
whatever you care to call it. It goes without saying, it is un- 
fair to start a hound if not in condition, for the better he is 
physically the better his nose will be. We will consider these 
qualities separately. To my mind brains is the most important 
possession of a consistent winner. Brains and a level head go 
together. If a hound has brains and a level head he will do 
little that is wrong, and if he does do wrong he will soon cor- 
rect himself.

The conditions and surroundings at a field trial are nearly 
always different from those at home and I believe nine times 
out of ten the hound is handled differently. At home he is 
allowed more freedom or, in other words, he is allowed to use 
his own head more. When he gets to the trials he expects to 
do the same. But is he allowed to do so? Usually, no. When he 
is put down at the trials he is expected to hark quickly to the 
tongueing of his brace mate, no matter if he be right or wrong. 
He may be working on a perfectly good line and may be fooled 




F. T. CH. HEMPFIELD LITTLE DANDY 



by his rival, or even by his handler, to leave his line and go 
to the other hound, only to find it was a false alarm. A level 
headed hound will not be thus led astray very often by the same 
hound. Of course it takes courage and will power not to an- 
swer the other's call, and the right kind have the courage to 
stick to what they are working on, for they are sure they are 
right. 

At home, if you have a babbler, just watch the level headed 
hound, and see how much attention he pays to Mr. Loud-mouth. 



The Beagle in America

It only takes a brainy hound a short time to find out which is 
lying — dogs are like men in this respect. But by some strange 
change of note or something we do not understand or perceive, 
the level headed hound will not hark quickly when the noisy 




MRS. DR. T. B. SNYDER, A SUCCESSFUL FTELD TRIAL HANDLER 



hound makes a start. Now the same conditions or display of 
brains will occur later on when the babbler overruns and keps on 
going like a "sight chase." Now is the time Mr. Level-head must 



u6 The Beagle in America 



have a lot of courage and nerve to stop, when he runs out of 
scent and gets back to where he left the line, while Mr. Babbler 
is calling him on. When you see him stop and go back it makes 
you admire Mr. Level-head more than you thought you could. 

Of course, sometimes these high flyers get things going their 
way and by luck get away with it. Nothing has excited them, 
nothing has bothered them, they get away in front and make 
a good showing. But can they repeat, and if they do repeat in 
an hour will they repeat tomorrow and next year? I am draw- 
ing these comparisons to try and show why I consider brains 
the most important possession a winning beagle has. He may 
have all the speed in the world and fairly "burn the grass," but 
if he has not brains enough to know when to go fast and when 
to go slow he will never be a consistent winner. Brains with 
a level head are what we want in a hound. 

What good are brains if not properly used? Crazy people are 
very smart in some ways and smart people are also very crazy 
in other ways. Some hounds get too smart and work their 
brains to their own disadvantage. They think they can cut and 
get ahead without being seen, or possibly they don't care, just 
so they get there, and several other little tricks they possess. 
One of the best bitches I know and she always runs a good 
heat, does much better work if she does not see the rabbit, but 
believe me. she can see a rabbit "a mile'' and when she does, 
she is not as steady as before. She seems to have a notion in 
her head that she wants to eat that rabbit, and she then and 
there makes up her mind to do it, by fair running if she can 
and otherwise if she must. Another fault of a "smart hound" is 
rot to follow the line when it leads into bad going or thick briers, 
but to hang around on the outside waiting for a chance for the 
rabbit to come out, when they will jump into the lead and go 
on as if they had performed well and done good work. 

Nose is a wonderful asset, and on the bad days and worse 
places it is great to see how these keen nosed hounds can follow 
the rabbits' line. Many times they have to slow down, yes, 
almost stop and then pick it out very slowly, but here again 
the brains manage the whole situation, they control the move- 
ments, and when the line is finally straightened out the brains 
cause the shift from "low gear" to "high" and the hound is 
moving fast again. Watch a hound when a rabbit runs to a 
road and possibly follows it for quite a distance. The hound 
will try one side of the road for a while, then try the other, 
then the middle and yet no scent. He may repeat this and also 



n8 The Beagle in America 

try the banks or along the fence on each side, but still no scent. 
He knows the rabbit came to that point, he knows he must 
search for the line from that point. He works further up and 
down the road, and finally gets the line — a slight whiff — which 
he continues to follow slowly, until he gets on good footing 
again when he can speed up and drive as he did before the road 
interfered. His good nose finally worked it out, but his brains 
caused him to work both sides and the middle of that road 
before he did get it straight. 

Speed — Most any ordinary "fit" hound has speed enough to 
carry him as fast as he should want to go. He must, however, 
have a keen desire to use that speed and push on to the lead, 
if he can attain it and still carry the line. If he can run a 
"'mile a minute" and cannot follow the line, what good is speed 
tc him? It will very likely carry him so far from the line that 
he will never find it again. While speed can help a hound, it 
can also hurt his chances to win unless he has brains enough 
to control his speed. Put two speedy ones down together, and 
it they are not level headed they will put themselves out of 
the race by wild running. Speed is a fine asset when properly 
used, but it is also a disadvantage when not under control. 

In many cases too much attention is paid to speed. After one 
hound has worked the trail through briers and over bad ground 
to good, straight going, the other will jump in and drive away 
like the wind. Now, which one deserves the most credit? Cer- 
tainly the one that did the hard work. Another kind of a case 
can be cited. One hound is in the bushes and briers hunting 
for a loss or a start, the other is working the paths and "easy 
places," a little brier shy. The hound in the bushes forces the 
rabbit out, but before he gets the line straight enough to de- 
clare himself, the one on the outside either sees the rabbit or 
is lucky enough to run over the trail and away he goes, "stealing 
the other fellow's thunder." Speed is all right if under proper 
control. What good is speed to a baseball pitcher if he cannot 
control the ball and put it over the plate, and what good is speed 
to a hound if he cannot control himself and keep on the line? 

Desire to hunt and endurance. Any ordinary healthy beagle 
when properly worked and in condition, has endurance for an 
all day hunt and can and will run from morning until night. He 
will, of course, have to be game and I think most of them are. 
Many of them will stick it out just as long as they can walk, 
but there are some that have no heart or courage and are natur- 
ally lazy. These are apt to quit in an hour's race, especially 



The Beagle in America 



119 



if things do not just go to suit them. A hound that has not had 
enough work to get him in physical shape is at a great dis- 
advantage when any great effort has to be made. He is not 
right for such hard work and try all he may he has not the 
strength to keep up, much less go ahead and show the way. It 
is really sad to see some old, fat hound — good in his day — put 
down with a keen, hard, fit brace mate. His experience may 
help him if scenting is hard and he may make a fair showing, 
but what would he have done if he had been treated right and 
worked until in running shape?

Hunting ability and energy and desire to hunt is a very neces- 
sary quality, but it is not demonstrated as much as we would 
like to have, it done. There are several reasons for this. In the 
first place, thirty minutes is the usual length of a heat, and 
every handler is anxious to get a start as soon as possible to 
give his hound all the chance he can on game. He, therefore, 
gets busy and tries to get a rabbit going — then the crowd may 
walk up a rabbit before the hounds know they have been cast 
off. Late in the day old scent has disappeared, and the hound 
has not the same incentive to get him going as the one down 
early in the morning. Then some hounds have been led around 
for hours before they are called for, and a lot of ginger has been 



120 



The Beagle in America 



taken out of them, especially if they have been cuffed around 
for making a noise in their anxiety to get in the chase with the 
brace that is working. All these things result in a hound not 
being able to always demonstrate that he can and will hunt for 
and start game. A good starter is always a welcomed addition 
to a man's pack. My experience has been that the hound that 
works the old night trails will not start as many rabbits as the 
one that looks in likely places, ditch banks, etc. Some hounds 
seem to know just where to look for the rabbit and are wonders 
to get them going. 




F. T. CH. KISHWAUKEE JUDY 



Aggressiveness, ambition, a desire to be in the lead, is quite 
an attribute and the hound that possesses these qualities is hard 
to beat. He is after his game all the time. If a loss is made 
he is working to find the line every minute he is down, and 
<when he gets it he works just as hard to keep it and show the 
way to his competitor. He does not stop to look around to 
see what is going on, but he keeps plugging away and will not 
give up until he is forced to do so. Often after a loss is made 
the hounds are moved on, but a sticker will want to go back 
and try to pick up the line again. Some of them will stick longer 



The Beagle in America 



than their handlers. The hound that runs to a loss and will not 
stay out and hunt for the line, but will come right back to the 
handler, is a s^rry sort of a beagle and one that will not make 
much of an impression for good on those watching him work. 
Everyone likes a "sticker" and hates a "quitter." 

There is always a great deal of talk about bad running rabbits. 
Well, some of them are mean twisters, I will grant you, but the 
hound has a lot to do with how Mr. Rabbit runs. I have seen 
hounds that always seemed to have bold running rabbits. Now 
I believe it is the hound that makes them run. I have seen a 




F. T. CH. CHARMION BEN 



rabbit dodging all around a brace of hounds, and they could 
not make him run fast enough to keep him warm. Take them 
up and put down another brace on same rabbit and in a mighty 
short time that rabbit had notions in his head of paying a visit 
to another county. Now, some will claim the first pack or brace 
would have done the same thing if they had not been taken up, 
that they had just gotten that rabbit scared enough to get away 
and get away fast. Of course, there is no way of proving this 
and it is only a matter of opinion and cannot be proved very 
well. 

This much is certain and occurs often, three or four braces 



The Beagle in America 



or packs are worked out in same field, same kind of going, every- 
thing apparently the same and they cannot get a good drive. 
The next brace or pack puts up a good race, and then the next 
and the next will perform about like the first three or four did, 
and the rabbits seem to have lost all desire to run. Recently a 
marked rabbit — that is one with a big spot on one side — was 
used during a trial for at least six braces, not the same day, 
but almost every day we ran that rabbit. The good hounds 
made that rabbit run like a fox, and some of the others could 
not make him get away from the crowd. This fact was talked 
of at the time, and we were always glad when we got after this 
fellow, for we felt certain if the hound did his part, that rabbit 
would show him a long race and a trick at the end of it. 

A field trial beagle, therefore, should be a brainy, level headed 
hound, with a good, keen nose, speed to carry him as fast as 
he can carry the line, ambition to get ahead of his rival, both in 
running the trail and finding a loss after one has been made, 
game enough to go in any rough cover and persistent enough 
to stay at a loss until the line is worked out, and one that hunts 
to his handler and is on the job when wanted. 

How as a judge I try to work out the results. With packs 
it is entirely a matter of ecpinion, based upon two performances 
at different times. Of course the way the several hounds hunt, 
the way they "pack," the way they hunt for a loss, the way they 
drive, the way they hark to each other, all are to be considered 
in the final score. You compare the work of one pack with 
that of another. You mark them as it appears to you. In such 
cases there is always a chance for a difference of opinion, and 
why should there not be? Take two hounds and stand them 
up five feet apart and let a judge score them by the standard 
of points. Then let another judge do the same and I will wager 
they do not agree. 

They have the hounds right before them, but they differ be- 
cause they think differently. Now, if they can differ on the 
qualities of an anima 1 standing right in front of them, you cer- 
tainly must know there is more chance for a difference, as to 
percentage points, when those figures are simply a matter of 
opinion wormed at different times and different places. A pack 
should be composed of hounds that hunt independently and yet 
keep close enough to each other to hark quickly whenever a 
start is made. Should a hound be any distance from where the 
start is made he should "get in" as fast as he can, and keep his 
mouth shut while he is doing it.

A one-dog pack is not desirable. Every hound has some work 
to do, and you want him right there to do it when the time ar- 
rives. All cannot be in front at the same time, but when the 
one that is in the lead misses the line, then it is the duty of 
one of the others to take the lead and go on with it. This order 
will and does change very often. There are usually a few in 
each pack that do most of the leading. Hounds that pack well 
make the best impression on those looking on even if inferior 
in some other way, and the pack that will maintain a speed that 
allows them to carry the line without long checks and thereby 
keeps the rabbit on the move, is the pack that will make the 
best showing. There are some hounds that are always good 
in a pack and there are others that will ruin any pack you keep 
them in. A "skirter" is an abomination and a "babbler" is a 
nuisance. 

In the single classes the hounds are braced to run in pairs 
and you can compare the work of each at the same time. Single 
classes can be judged in two ways. One way is to pick out all 
the best hounds in the first series, and drop out of consideration 
all the rest of the class. That is, start at the top and pick the 
best first. The other way is to start from the bottom, and drop 
those that are not as good as others in the class, and take what 
is left for the second series. It is natural that during the run- 
ning certain hounds are sure to be scored higher than some 
ethers, for they have, in your judgment, done better work and 
are entitled to stand higher in the class. There are always some 
hounds that for one reason or another are not considered worthy 
of a second trial. These are, therefore, left out in making up 
the second series. After the first series has been run through, 
if you are picking the best and letting the others go, or dropping 
the worst and leaving the others in, then brace the hounds re- 
maining; and if the class is not too large and the competition 
too close, you may be able to pick your winners. But in large 
classes and close competition, you may have to continue to weed 
out before a final decision can be made. 

And now having completed the first series — a record of which 
you have before you — you have kept this record in percentage 
points or some other way — and this first series is the basis on 
which you are to finally select the winners, you run the second 
series and get the best you find in it for the places. Due con- 
sideration must always be given a hound for what he does in 
the first series. For. example. A running with B — A runs a 
slashing heat in the first series. C running with D — C runs a 



The Beagle in America 



125 



good heat, but not to be compared with A's heat. Later on A 
and C are run together and the heat is close, not much differ- 
ence between them. In this case I would give A first place. 
Pie was far ahead of all others in the first series and, while 




F. T. CH. PIEDMONT DOCTOR 



pushed hard by C in the second series, was not beaten. C ran 
better in the second series than in the first, but at best could 
only about tie A. C's improvement may have been caused by 
A's good work, as a good hound will often help or apparently 
help one not so good. This same method is continued on 
through the series until you have them placed as you feel they 



126 The Beagle in America 



should be. In the event the first series produces three or four 
that seem to be nearly equal in their work (all being in different 
braces) and have all been marked about the same, then all you 
can do is to brace them up and let them run it out until they 
show you by their work which is best of the lot that day, and 
so on down the line. 

Now for the handler's luck. One very big factor is what 
kind of a hound you draw to run against. If you have a good 
level-headed hound and draw one of the same kind, nothing will 
prevent each hound showing his real worth, and then it is a 
case of which can really do a little better than the other in a 
clean, fair test. Then if you should find you have for the next 
brace two high strung, rangy hounds, a little inclined to have 
too much mouth, they very often will try to outdo each other 
to such an extent that they will go wrong before the heat is 
over. One of this latter kind braced with a real steady, level- 
headed hound will often make a very good showing, for he has 
nothing to bother him, nothing to encourage him to do wrong. 
An inferior hound braced with a real good one will often make 
such a showing that you will be fooled into taking him in the 
second series, only to find out he does not belong there, and is 
not good enough that day to be placed among the winners. 
When hounds can repeat and do as well or a little better in the 
second series, you have little trouble in picking the winners. 
But if your second series hounds all fall down and do not show 
as they did in the first series, then your troubles begin. 

I have seen, both when handling my own hounds at the trials 
and when judging, a brace you considered the best in the class, 
fall down and do enough that was bad to drop them out en- 
tirely, and the next best brace had to be moved up, and possibly 
some hounds not considered for the second series in the first 
selection, had to be brought in to run with those yet left in the 
second series. Of course, this latter condition will not occur 
if the class is large enough to have had a good number first 
taken in the second series. 

When a brace is put down you must consider first if they 
show they will hunt and which has the advantage in this par- 
ticular branch of the work. Then you want to see what they do 
when game is started. One may be very careful and be positive 
he is on the right line before he declares himself. The other 
may dash off in full cry at the first whiff of scent, and in ten 
seconds be thirty or forty yards from the line. He may shut 
up or he may not, all depends upon the hound. This is calcu- 



The Beagle in America 



127 



lated to excite the other hound, and it certainly will unless he 
can control himself and stay right where he is, on the line. 
If he does, the other hound will soon be back to him eager to 
take the line from him. So far there is not much trouble to 
determine which you like best. 




F. T. CH. SANKANAC BLUE 



They then make a fairly good drive on a straight line which 
may be easy for any hound, and the lead may be held by first 
one and then the other, and then comes a sharp turn or a double 
right back on the line. Now see which will work this out, one 
may get it this time and the other the next and so on for twenty 
or thirty minutes. The harder the trailing and the worse the 
loss, the more credit should be given to the hound that finally 
straightens it out and gets going again. 

One of the running rules says the brilliancy of the find is 



128 The Beagle in America 



more important than the frequency of the performance. I take 
this to mean that the harder the loss is to find the more it should 
redound to the credit of the finder. Another one of the running- 
rules, and one that does not seem to be considered as much as 
it should be, speaks of control where it says if both hounds are 
equal in every other way, the preference should be given to the 
one that obeys or handles best. If this rule was put in practice 
a little more than it is, some handlers would pay a little more 
attention to the obedience of their hounds, and it would be a 
very great pleasure and a saving of time if all the hounds would 
come quickly when blown in or called. 

Judges are called upon to decide between hounds, and not 
handlers. They want to see the work of the hounds, not the 
work of the handlers. If the hounds cannot find the line after 
a loss, and the handler saw where the rabbit turned and which 
way it went, it is no credit to the hound if the handler deliber- 
ately lays his hound on the line. If it seems there is no chance 
for either of the hounds finding a line they have lost, and the 
line is known, and the judges so desire, both hounds are worked 
to and on the line, so that progress may be made. You want to 
compare the work of the hounds and you must have work to 
compare, the line the rabbit laid down is what you want to see 
worked and followed in the truest manner they can and with 
as much speed as conditions will allow. 

It is my firm belief that a hound will not run much faster than 
the rabbit ran over any given portion of the route. In other 
words, if a rabbit crosses a field in a perfectly straight line at 
full speed, the hounds will do the same, but on the other hand, 
if the rabbit has a long lead on the hounds, and goes out into 
a field and then just takes about one jump at a time and goes 
very slow, when the hounds strike this part of the line they 
will slow down and possibly do little more than drag along. 
An old saying is "Hounds cannot drive a walking fox," and I 
have seen the same thing with creeping rabbits. 

The length of heats has caused quite a difference of opinion 
among beaglers. Some want thirty minutes, some, one hour, 
some, all day. Now this length of heat business is a two-edge 
sword and cuts both ways. First, if a hound makes a mighty 
good showing in the first twenty or twenty-five minutes, I for 
one would be perfectly willing (if it was my hound) to take 
him up and take my chances on what he has shown, for in the 
next five or ten minutes he may make such a mistake as to 
lose all chance to be considered in the final standing. There is 



The Beagle in America 



I2Q 



nothing perfect in the animal line, not even man, and if you 
give them time enough they are liable to make some kind of a 
mistake. 

The best ball player may go through nine innings of brilliant 
work without a fumble or a missed chance, or an error of any 
kind, but in the tenth, the extra inning, one fumble or wild 




F. T. CH. SAN KAN AC SPURT 



throw may lose the game. If the game had stopped at nine 
innings his record would have been perfect. So it is with 
hounds, many of them do well for quite a length of time, but 
break under the strain and make an error. Now the short heat 
would have been to this hound's advantage. Then again a 
hound may start off with bad work for the first half of his heat, 
but after that he displays better qualities and improves right 
along for the balance of the heat and finishes up strong. Of 
course, this handler wants the longer heat and the other fellow 
is sorry he had such a long one. One has a good beginning and 
a poor ending, and the other has a poor beginning and a good 
ending, so you have to decide between them as you think best, 
and the chances are both are dropped, certainly if their errors 
warrant it. 



130 The Beagle in America 



The length of heats as usually run — thirty minutes — is about 
as fair for one as for the other, and if a hound cannot show you 
something in thirty minutes, he is apt to keep you waiting for 
an indefinite period. But if on the other hand a brace is cast off 
and in the first five or ten minutes, they, or one of them, do 
such bad work as to make it impossible for one or both of them 
to be placed, what is the use keeping them down any longer? 
If, for example, a hound starts a rabbit and runs him away two 
or three hundred yards, makes a loss and after casting around 
a while picks up the back line and runs it to where the start 
was made, this hound has no chance on earth to be placed in 
the final awards and the sooner he is out of the way, the better. 
But it should be emphasized that dogs, like men, are liable to 
err and such a mistake should not be allowed by a judge to 
influence him, should the dog come under his judgment in future 
events. Neither should a judge be influenced by anything told 
him, nor which he does not see himself. I would not penalize 
a dog for something, -no matter what my idea was of what the 
rabbit had done, unless I had seen it for myself. 

No man can judge hounds unless he can see them and the 
rabbit also, and when they are run in thick cover and you are 
trying to go by the tonguing, you are just about guessing. 
This can be qualified in certain cases. To illustrate, the rabbit 
runs to thick briers, one hound follows on in, the other hangs 
around the outside. Now, if the hound that is following the 
line and tonguing comes out on the other side and keeps on 
going and you see the rabbit, you certainly know he was right, 
and deserves credit for his work. To see the rabbit and know 
which line he took and then see the hounds work the line, you 
know exactly how close they keep to that line. 

To properly follow the work of the hounds you should be 
able to see both the rabbit and the hounds, the rabbit as often 
as possible and the hounds most of the time, and by being 
mounted you can follow them as in no other way. If you are 
following a brace on foot, the rabbit goes out ahead of you and 
is out of sight in an instant. The hounds follow and if it hap- 
pens to be a long, fast drive, all you can do is to try and keep 
those hounds in sight. If you try to follow them you have a 
job on your hands, and if you stand and watch for them to run 
the rabbit around back to somewhere near where the start was 
made, you have seen only a little of the race and the hound that 
shows on the line, when you first see them coming back, and 
apparently doing the work, may have just gotten there. Up to 



132

that time the other hound may have done all the best of the 
work, but you did not see him do it, and his good work was 
lost because you could not keep up and see him do it. 

You cannot make any hard and fast rule by which a field 
trial must be judged, when that rule is interpreted and worked 




F. T. CH. FANNHALL TOPSY 



out by what each set of judges see and think of the work being 
done in each heat. Different people see things in a different 
way and always will. An umpire is paid well to decide if the 
pitcher puts the ball over the plate or not. There he stands 
day after day just behind the plate watching that ball. He calls 
"strike" and in an instant ten thousand men are on their feet 



134 The Beagle in America 



yelling "ball" and willing to swear the ball was two feet from 
the plate. Now a judge keeps as close watch as he can on the 
rabbit and the line he follows, and he also keeps as close a 
watch on the hounds as he possibly can to see how near they 
follow that line. The owner or handler will almost always think 
his hound followed that line by every little twist and turn. The 
judge does not see it that way, and when this hound is not taken 
into the second series, the owner or handler is much dis- 
appointed. 

There are, say twenty in the class and only four are to be 
placed, therefore, the difference between the fourth dog placed 
and the one just below him is very slight. The hounds have 
been drawn — the first brace is called — in many cases strange 
hounds to the judges — certainly derbies. When these hounds 
are put down, I don't care a rap to know which hound is 
"Leader'' and which is "Driver" or anything else about them. 
I know there are two hounds running and two men handling 
them, and I am to decide or help to decide which is the better 
of the two, and as near as I can, what degree of perfection these 
hounds attained in the heat. That is, take one hundred for 
perfect performance. What part of the hundred did each of 
them show? When I have made up my mind which of those 
hounds has done the better work and about how good it is, and 
if by that time I have not found out which is which, I ask their 
names. I have already picked my hound and am ready to score 
him. 

Of course some hounds you know before you start and, of 
course, you know the names of the brace as drawn, but these 
registered names are not always used. I may have written 
down "Smith's Wonder" and after the heat starts I hear the 
handler call, "Come here, Nigger," or "Hark in, Kid," or some 
other kennel name. Because a hound won last year or last week 
is no reason he will win today. They all look alike before they 
start and I try to give each one a fair trial, and give each one 
a chance to show his good qualities and his bad qualities. I 
want to see all the good in a hound and I want to see all the 
bad as well. They all have some of both. Because a hound 
may be a little better than his brace mate, it is not always neces- 
sary to take him in the second series, for there may be ten 
others in the class that appear better than either of them. 
Neither because one of a brace is not quite as good as the other, 
is there any reason why both of these cannot be taken in the 
second series, for the worst of this pair may, in your judgment, 



The Beagle in America 13$ 



be better than ten others in the class. And as you are trying 
to get the four best, you can select them from whatever brace 
you find them in. 

It often happens that two very good ones are drawn to run 
together and also two poor ones are drawn to run together. 
Every hound entered is supposed to be good and possibly they 
are, sometimes, but they do not always show their good qualities 
at the right time. There are some that do good work one day 
and "bum" work the next, and their owners know this and 
simply take a chance. The hound that finds the line — that sticks 
closest to the line — that keeps his mouth shut when not on the 
line — that drives fast when the going is good and slows down 
when the line is hard to follow, the hound that knows where 
he left the line and about where to go to pick it up again, will 
surely be way up in the stake at the finish.

HARE HOUNDS, TRIALS 
AND JUDGING 

BY 

E. C. HARE 

HOLLIDAYSBURG, PENNA. 



The Hare. 

North America, which extends from the border of the Arctic 
regions southward as far as New Mexico, produces the American 
varying hare (lepus Americanus) in some of its four varieties. 

This hare is remarkable for its change of color without change 
ot hair. It is brown until the snow comes, when it changes 
color in a few days and becomes white. The hare is extremely 
timid, and unlike the common rabbit is not found near places 
of habitation, but rather in the solitude of the mountains and 
swamps. In spite of its timidity it is more pugnacious than is 
generally believed to be the case, and shows courage in en- 
counters with other hares and with animals of its size. Because 
of its gameness and swiftness it has been an object of the chase 
from an early period and the sport of hare hunting is especially 
alluring. 

Hare Hunting. 
Poor is the triumph o'er the timid hare, 
Yet vain her best precaution, though she sits 
Conceal'd, with folded ears, unsleeping eyes. 
By nature raised to take the horizon in, 
And head conceal'd betwixt her hairy feet, 
In act to spring away. The scented dew 
Betrays her labyrinth ; and deep 
In scatter'd sullen openings, far behind, 
With every breeze, she hears the coming storm, 
But nearer and more frequent, as it heeds 
The sighing gale, she springs amazed, and all 
The savage soul of game is up at once.

The anticipation of the chase — the thrill of the impulse — the 
excitement and pleasure of the chase — the harmony of the tune- 
ful chorus of eager hounds in full cry — these can be appreciated 
only by the initiated, by those who revel in the music of the 
swaying pack. What is more glorious, more exhilarating, more 
soul-inspiring, more interesting, than to blaze the trail and, 
{while the heart pounds like a trip hammer, to watch, in silence, 
determination and knowledge pitted against craft and instinct? 
The leader true to his profession calls a halt, the pack spreads 
as a great fan, and each with his well-trained nose endeavors 
to extract the warm scent from the earth, and unravel the tricky 
trail of the "swamp graduate" as he twists and twines, side- 
steps, back-tracks, and finally leads away with a clearing bound 
that would make a red fox blush with shame. These are the 
tricks of the snow-shoe hare, the keenest, sharpest, and most 
wily of the rabbit race. 

My experience with nature's wood-folk covers a lifetime. 
I have followed the deer trails, hunted the red fox in his native 
heath, followed the cottontail hounds every day in the week for 
months at a time without a miss, played the ducks and geese on 
their southern voyage, and gambled with the wily raccoon by 
moonlight, but of all the real sport that these wonderful 
pastimes afford, none can compare to white hare hunting with 
a pack of well-bred and well-trained hare hounds, in his natural 
habitat. You who have never hunted the hare have no con- 
ception of the keen enjoyment, the real recreation, and the 
wonderful possibilities to be derived from this form of hunting 
with a pack of beagles. 

The race is on. For hours the hunter smashes through brush, 
brier, balsam, up over the rocks, out over the bench, down into 
the swamp, his whole life bent upon getting to the checks, to 
the crossings, seeing the hare and checking his hounds. He 
cares not for rain, sleet, snow, creeks, mountains, brier or devil 
club. In the evening talk with him, you will find he can give 
you a blueprint of the day's running. He will give you a de- 
tailed account of every foot of the line, the work of each indi- 
vidual hound, the real hounds, the chorus running, back-track- 
ing, lying, pottering, freezing, mock-chasing, wailing and quit- 
ting ; ask him how many hare he killed, or how long he stood 
upon a stump or sat by the roadside, or which hound "contin- 
ually straddled the line" and he will give you the "once over." 
True, not all of us are physically able, or so situated, or able to 
find the time, to become hare hunters. Possibly it is good for 



140 The Beagle in America 



the hare that this is the case, but hare hunting is as far re- 
moved from cottontail hunting as the East is from the West. 

The white hare sits close in his form. He makes his day bed 
on a sunny slope of the hillside or in the swamp; you can step 
en him sometimes before he makes a ten-foot plunge, as he 
clears the cover that hides him. He repeats this plunge again 
and again until finally he "heads" for another country — for parts 
unknown — to a more quiet refuge — to a place he well knows. 
When he has thus placed a safe distance between himself and 
you and the beagles, he stops, sits up on his long, slender hind 
legs, wobbles his big dirt colored nose, sniffs the air for a faint 
trace of what might reveal the presence of an enemy; if sat- 
isfied, comes down on all fours, takes a kick or two at his ears, 
washes his face, and stretches out broadside to relax his mus- 
cles ; as the pack approaches he is up like a flash and gone like 
a bat out of Hades. But no matter from what angle he has been 
started, no matter what his first impulse may have been, he will 
always return to the place from whence he came, after he has 
made the dash and completed his circle. 

He loves to run ahead of the hounds, and an old buck hare 
that has had long experience with fast beagles soon learns to 
exploit many cunning tricks, and he always uses them to best 
advantage. His supply of craftiness and instinct is inexhaust- 
ible, and at times he can fool the wisest of the old veteran pack 
leaders. He has one fine quality possessed by no other of his 
species ; he never quits, and after all the rest are safely housed 
under the floor, he will be dancing a merry two-step to the tune 
of a beagle chorus. True, in extreme cases, a white hare has 
been known to go to earth when pressed continuously by a fast 
pack. This was fully demonstrated once at the Northern Hare 
trials. Yet in all my hare hunting with many different strains 
of dogs, some of the best and swiftest, with noses unfailing and 
speed to burn, I confess this is the only time I ever witnessed 
the going to earth of a white hare unless he was in some way 
wounded or otherwise out of condition. The white hare is evi- 
dently designed to find safety from enemies by fleetness. and 
is conceded to be the gamest and swiftest of the rabbit family. 

Hare Hounds. 

The question of the relative merit in hare and cottontail 
hounds has occasioned general discussion at nearly all our field 
trials for several years past. The only criticism we could offer 
would be the fact that most of our "cottontail" beaglers have 




DR. J. R. MCELROY WITH JUPITER OF BIRCH-BRAE 



142 The Beagle in America 



never seen a hare, have never competed in a hare race, hence 
can claim no knowledge of the relative merits in hounds for 
any other work than that with which they are familiar. 

The problem confronting the hare hound is far different from 
that confronting the cottontail hound. It has been proved be- 
yond a doubt that some beagles have been produced whose 
conformation and constitution are such as to enable them to 
stand the continuous pounding necessary in a five-hour race 
over any country in any weather, whose scenting powers are 
unlimited, whose courage amounts almost to ferocity ; unequaled 
in endurance, practically free from faults (but not from mis- 
takes, for the perfect hound does not live), hounds that will lay 
to the line and drive their quarry until, themselves down and 
out from fatigue or taken up by their owners, hounds whose 
marvelous power of scent and persistent determination enable 
them to follow the trail however the track may have been 
crossed and recrossed, folded, looped, and tied at every conceiv- 
able angle. These are qualities without which there can be but 
little merit in a hound as a hunter, and a high class hare hound 
must necessarily possess these qualities, together with man- 
ner, method, inherited traits, disposition, control and ability to 
accomplish. Hounds possessing these qualities are scarce and 
those having method in their application are scarcer, for the 
correct driving of a white hare is an accomplishment achieved 
by few hounds, and not correctly understood by many men who 
claim to be known as experts at the hare hunting game. 

Our field trials run entirely on the hare have proved to us 
that a very large per cent of the dogs started were decidedly in- 
ferior, and lacked every quality that goes to make a high-class 
hunter. The unpardonable faults of pottering, back-tracking, 
false-tonguing, mock-chasing, rioting, loafing and quitting, have 
been strikingly in evidence. I have been asked many times for 
an opinion as to why so many of these qualities are lacking in 
many of our present-day beagles, and why the faults just men- 
tioned are so magnified. I would place the blame for it at 
the feet of the breeder who does not hunt, who does not em- 
ploy men to hunt his hounds, who refuses to see or to be told 
their faults. In the first instance the hunting instinct lies dor- 
mant and finally cold in death. In the second, by breeding 
faulty hounds to faulty hounds, as hunters, one may rightly 
expect these faults to be magnified, no matter what the strain 
or pedigree. 



The Beagle in America 



'43 



The breeder of hare hounds must have accurate breeding 
knowledge, but this knowledge needs to be of a different kind 
from that necessary to breed hounds of type, color, tongue ; 
hounds for cottontail hunting, or short races. He need not 
care so much that the blood be of some particular strain, as 
that it shall combine certain qualities that will bring hare hunt- 
ers, free froni faults, into his pack, for in this day of special 




F. T. CH. DIANA OF BIRCH-BRAE 



purposes no man can expect to get all points in the same hound, 
for all these points were never combined in one hound, and 
they never will be. In fact, few hounds come close to- perfection, 
and almost none attain it absolutely. No matter what may be 
the blood of the hound, if he does not possess the qualities 
mentioned, or if he has any of the faults mentioned, he is worth- 
less as a hunter and a nuisance as a pack hound. The hare 
hound to be classed as meritorious must have speed and bottom 
for long and "cruel distances" just as had the race horses of 
one hundred years ago. As an illustration we mention "Ve- 
locity." In 1808 he trotted twenty-eight miles in one hour and 
forty-seven minutes. 

Atavism is the reproduction of peculiarities or mental traits 



144 The Beagle in America 



of an ancestor near or remote. This is valuable when good 
qualities are thrown, which is likely, if the good qualities are 
inherent ; and must be guarded against if the qualities trans- 
mitted are bad, for it is well known that but few pups, even of 
the best blood, ever arrive at high eminence as hunters. Al- 
though every hunter of class is a thoroughbred, yet by no means 
is every thoroughbred a hunter, and one could hardly expect 
a "crack" hunter unless the blood of high class hunting hounds 
is strong in both sire and dam, and then only through "nicking," 
by which is meant the extraordinary development of hunting 
traits through the union of a sire and dam of the most excellent 
traits as hunters, perfectly blended together. There is no ques- 
tion but that a hound may acquire a certain trait, as a hunter, 
by development, and when once attained that trait may be in- 
tensified and perpetuated ; and those he has inherited will grad- 
ually weaken if permitted to lie dormant; hence the necessity 
of hunting hounds, for surely hare hounds of merit are pro- 
duced from hard hunting hounds free from faults, and not from 
pedigree alone, without selection and elimination. 

This might also be taken as an answer to the question, "Why 
do so many of our beagles lack the intense desire to hunt, found 
in the setter and the pointer?" Intelligence and stamina are 
hereditary characteristics, and these qualities may, by careful 
training and hunting, be steadily increased until they become 
at length so strongly marked that the young take to intelligent 
hunting and show stamina at a very early age. Breeders, we 
hope, are coming to understand the value of hunting and care- 
fully training hounds for the influence upon hereditary traits. 
Assuming now that the hound has been properly bred and care- 
fully trained and worked almost constantly for at least two 
seasons, he will have acquired through experience a knowledge 
sufficient to place him in whatever class, as a hunter, he may 
belong with respect to merit. 

A high-class hare dog must necessarily have qualities which 
could well be lacking in a cottontail dog of otherwise equal 
merit. He must be a wide caster. By this I mean he must 
get out and make a wide range in order to start his game. This 
is necessary because the hare does not inhabit small coverts, 
but is found only on the mountains and in the adjoining swamps. 
This does not mean self-hunting, but wide, intelligent ranging, 
keeping to the course as directed by the owner and, unless 
working a scent, coming in sight at frequent intervals and al- 
ways when called or blown for. 



The Beagle in America 



'45 



Cold-trailing and pottering (which usually accompanies it) 
are unpardonable faults in a hare dog, for the hare will make 
enough tracks in a night to keep a cold trailing, pottering hound 
busy all day. When a hound comes in contact with scent he 
should "cut" through and over it (just as a man using his eyes 
on the snow), until he gets the lead away, follow it silently to 
the end — but the hare is never there, his instinct has taught 
him how to protect his day bed and the hound, through knowl- 
edge gained by experience, knows what to do — to get in and 
rout him out and scream the find. 




northwood's doctor 



Take oft' your coat and vest, unbutton your collar, game is 
up, and it will stay up as long as you care to remain in that 
locality. Down over the bare ganister rocks he comes, up an 
old stone road, in a smooth frozen log trail, out through the 
brier and devil club, down an old sand road, right back, straight 
up and over the mountain, around through the jack-pine. Offer 
no apologies for your hounds. Do not say you fed them sweet 
cake, or the scenting conditions are bad. Get to them, see the 
hare, check your hounds, watch the inherent traits of their 



146 The Beagle in America 



ancestors show forth. No matter what the day or what the 
route, they must follow where he leadeth, the track is always 
there, the scent is always there, sometimes body, sometimes 
pad, sometimes breast high, sometimes cold, sometimes ticklish, 
no matter, the all wool hare hound is there to accept what na- 
ture presents and regulates his speed accordingly, but never 
quits until he has given his all, or has been taken up, bleeding, 
footsore, but willing to go on and ready to repeat day after day. 
In commenting upon merit in individual hounds afield it will 
be necessary to single out three of the very best hare dogs I have 
ever had the pleasure to hunt, judge, or own. 

FIELD CHAMPION "FOREST PATCH'— I never hope 
\r see his superior as a white hare hound. My experience with 
him covers three consecutive years. I have followed him for 
nineteen full hours of continuous driving of the white hare in 
the Adirondack's of northern New York. His shortest race was 
three hours and his longest race five hours. His running has 
been with all kinds of hounds, all kinds of weather (including 
snow), all kinds of going, swamp and mountain. No man ever 
saw him quit. No man ever saw the day he could not put you 
up a hare race. True, he has made many mistakes, easily ac- 
counted for and seldom worthy of note. During those nineteen 
hours of continuous driving he presented his hare to my view 
one hundred different times, and every trick known to "hare- 
ology" has been played ahead of him. I have seen the hare 
"wheel" him, "angle" him, back-track, squat, hounds cut in 
ahead of him — no matter, he has always been consistent in his 
work and clothed in a garb of hare sense, determination, cour- 
age, endurance, speed and ability to accomplish, he has stamped 
upon me his superiority as a hare hound over and above all that 
have been put down before me. Such a record could not fail to 
arouse in any sportsman the admiration for this splendid hound. 

FIELD CHAMPION "DIANA OF BIRCH BRAE"— This 
beautiful little sweet-toned hound is honored with the individual 
distinction of having driven a white hare to earth in exactly 
three hours. It has been our pleasure to judge her at two cot- 
tontail trials and eight full hours on white hare. She possesses 
practically every quality that any man could desire in a hare 
hcund. As a line driver and independent worker she stands in 
a class by herself. I have seen her, at a check, cut right out of 
the pack (which went on in riot), go to line, rout her hare 
from a squat, which was made ten yards from me, and drive 



The Beagle in America 



147 



him a sight race to another swamp, and continue alone for 
almost one hour until the pack could be "harked" to her. In 
her five-hour race she "struck off" ten consecutive angles clean 
and clear from her competitors and during the last ten minutes 
the hare made four angles and a small circle. Diana "caught" 
the turns, "swung" the circle alone, and as she headed straight 
on her line the watch clicked five full hours. In this race she 
showed me her hare twenty-seven times. 




CH. BUDDE 



As an illustration that line driving is done by hare hounds 
as well as by cottontail hounds, we quote the following from 
her five-hour race: "The hare ran between two large rocks, 
then turned to right, then to left to top of rise, then left along 
top of rise, then left back into swamp. Dian rt carried the pack 
right through these angles without a mistake — a wonderful ex- 
hibition of level headedness, for she had rioting all about her, 
to which she paid absolutely no attention." 

"NORTHFIELD NELLIE"— We have hunted this little 
thirteen and one-half inch hound for five years on all kinds of 



148 The Beagle in America 



game from Virginia to Canada. In testing for endurance I ran 
her seventy-seven hours in eleven consecutive days, sixty-six 
races. Shortly afterward I braced her with a hound from West 
Virginia and drove a mountain rabbit over the hardest kind of 
mountain going, for two hours and forty-five minutes to a kill. 
This trophy was presented to Mr. A. L. Lantzer. These com- 
ments are honestly given as seen, and practically experienced 
in the field, with but one purpose in view, namely, to try to 
prove to the hunter throughout this vast section of mountain- 
ous hunting, that the beagle, aside from its elegance and tracta- 
bility, when properly bred and trained, is the finest of the 
genus (canis) for hunting and driving the white hare. 

Hare Trials. 

In England, coursing the hare is still practiced. Coursing is 
a method of hunting hares with greyhounds, in which the dogs 
follow the game by sight instead of by scent. Meetings are held 
in open districts well frequented by hares, where greyhounds 
are entered by their owners for a variety of stakes which are 
to be competed for. 

The first thing done is to select a judge to decide upon the 
merits of the dogs ; second, to appoint a slipper, who holds the 
dogs in leash and* starts them at a hare; and, third, to appoint 
a flag steward, who remains near the judge and announces the 
color of the victorious dog, with a red or white flag. A hare 
is found by beating the fields and is usually given a start of 
eighty to one hundred yards. Upon the word "go" the slipper 
unleashes the dogs and it is then up to the judge to follow and 
thus calculate the number of points for each dog. A dog is 
given a point when he outstrips the other dog or when he turns 
the hare. The win does not necessarily go to the dog that kills 
the hare, but to the one showing the finest quality of speed, 
sagacity, endurance, etc. 

In this country only dogs that follow their game by scent 
are used for hunting the hare, and is now narrowed down to 
include only the beagle and foxhound. The beagle has proved 
himself to be best adapted for this work. All those who have 
hunted the hare with a pack of good beagles will verify this 
statement. They are more eager and animated in their work 
than the larger hounds, and they have the stamina to drive a 
hare for eight hours, and as a rule they have good voices and 
it is the music of the pack that the hunter enjoys. The number 
of sportsmen who hunt for pleasure is greatly in the majority. 



The Beagle in America 



149 



They love the chase and to them hare hunting is the ideal sport 
for trying out the beagles and for the thrills of the chase. 

A hare will not go to earth, but will lead the pack a race as 
long as it has the bottom to follow. Therefore, just as the fox 
hunter prefers to run the red fox, so does the rabbit hunter 
prefer to run the hare when he wishes to test his hounds and 
enjoy a long and hard drive. There are no short drives to stone- 




NORTHFIELD NELLIE 



piles, but continuous drives for hours and a good pack of 
beagles will keep a hare moving to save his life. It is a steady 
line driving that gives the quarry no rest, and while it is very 
unusual for a pack to make a kill, yet it has happened on several 
occasions. These are exceptions, and I have run a young hare 
for several hours, yet he evidently did not have much trouble 
in keeping way from the hounds. 

The interest in hunting hare has become so great that there 
is keen competition among men, and the beagle is now studied 



150 The Beagle in America 



with as much care as are race horses. Once a year The North- 
ern Hare Beagle Club holds its field trials on hare, and prizes 
are competed for by the owners of beagles that are entered in 
the various classes. These trials are held on the Adirondacks 
and in the adjoining swamps surrounding North Creek, New 
York. There are three races of two, three and five hours, re- 
spectively. The hounds are divided according to size and sex 
for the three and five-hour races, and the two-hour race is for 
hounds under two years of age. The hounds in each class are 
turned loose as a pack, in one of the large swamps. They are 
required to find the hare and drive him continuously until 
ordered up. Any hound, for any cause whatsoever, that quits 
the race fifteen minutes is barred from further competition. 

We have noticed quite frequently in print that the "cotton- 
tail'' hound has the same kind of work to perform as the hare 
hound. This is a mistake. The "cottontail" beagle is seldom 
lequired to drive longer than thirty or forty minutes, during 
which time the running is done on ground free from scents other 
than that which he is required to follow. If for any reason he 
fails to account for his game, he is scored with a loss, and given 
another trial. Not so with the hare hound. He must follow 
his hare hour after hour on the same ground. All the tricks 
known to rabbit instinct are played time and again until the 
entire swamp is nothing but a network of tracks. If for any 
reason the work becomes too hard, or he seeks the company of 
his owner, he is called "quitter" and ordered out of the compe- 
tition. 

Beagles are bred and sold for the purpose of hunting, day 
after day, in any cover; surely, then, as is admitted by all ex- 
pert hunters, a hound that cannot or will not stay at his work 
for three hours could not be expected to remain in the hunt 
from sun to sun, day after day. Any sportsman will forgive his 
hound for making a mistake, but no sportsman will forgive him 
for quitting. The hare trials should meet with the approval 
of every sportsman who has the interest of the beagle at heart, 
for they test our beagles in the very qualities demanded by men 
who hunt, and lacking in many hounds said to be good hunters. 
To all those who condemn hare hunting as a test for hunters, let 
me put this question: What would be the result if mollie cot- 
tontail had the speed and endurance to remain above ground, 
play the game and lead your hounds for five full hours before 
you heard the welcome cry "take up your hounds"? 



The Beagle in America 151 



JUDGING HARE TRIALS. 

HARE trials are a form of pack stake, in which the hounds 
are not judged as a pack, but as individuals wh6se com- 
bined acts in competition have a direct bearing on the 
common purpose, the pursuit of the quarry. All work 
as it contributes to success must be classed as meritorious, and 
any departure from it as a mistake, and if repeated, a fault ren- 
dering the hound worthless in the competition, in which case 
it should not be allowed to continue, for hounds are both imita- 
tive and gregarious, and under such circumstances will misbe- 
have generally. 

To judge hare hounds, one should be thoroughly competent, 
possessing an unlimited knowledge of hound work acquired by 
practical experience afield, as it refers to the correct manner 
of driving a hare. He should have an idea of what the hare, 
impelled by instinct, is apt to do under all circumstances, and 
should be a successful huntsman, whose qualifications are nicely 
given by Beckford, when he says in part : "He should be young, 
strong, bold and enterprising, fond of the diversion and inde- 
fatigable in the pursuit of it. He should have an eye so quick 
as to perceive which of the hounds are carrying the scent when 
all are running, and should have so excellent an ear as always 
to distinguish the foremost hounds when he does not see them." 
He must also be an athlete with endurance to carry him five 
hours at a good rate of speed, to keep him in touch with his 
pack at all times, for no man can of his own knowledge com- 
pare the work of hounds unless he sees the work done. 

A thorough knowledge of humanity is quite essential also, for 
no judge can ever hope to please all the patrons and owners of 
hounds. In every assemblage of men will always be found a 
certain percentage of grumblers, men who are constitutionally 
insane as to judgment and actuated by a love of notoriety and 
advertisement of their dogs. The wise judge will refuse to dis- 
cuss the competition with anyone, for the work of hounds must 
be rated as to its class, and this discrimination can only be 
made by the one who follows the hounds, knows them, and sees 
the work done throughout the competition. The judge who has 
been schooled to concentration, and whose memory is good, 
will soon rate a hound as to class ability, whether in competi- 
tion or not, and when so rated, will permit him to continue, 
depending entirely upon his ability to repeat his good perform- 
ance, or disqualify him for faults which render any hound unfit 
for the hunt.

The hare is up, all hounds are in, the race is on, all patrons 
seated, the judge stripped for action. Away goes the pack in 
full cry. The judge follows until the hare makes a turn, then, 
guided by the voice of the pack, stops and waits for the hare. 
When he comes, which he will in a few minutes, he turns him 
so as to check the pack and learn the voice of each individual 
hound. He now knows his pack, both by sight and by ear, the 
first thing necessary in intelligent judging. 




CH. JEANETTE 



The hare belongs to the rabbit family, and owes his craft 
to instinct. This places him on a dead level with every mem- 
ber of the family, and his running will compare favorably with 
the common rabbit, except that all his play grounds, circles, 
wheels, etc., will be larger and repeated hour after hour, which 
will demand of the hound many different kinds of effort, indi- 
cated by the varying degrees of intensity of the scent, and the 
judge will see one of the most wonderful exhibitions of varia- 
tion in the history of animated nature. 

Hounds, when put to a gruelling task or asked to do that for 
which thev are entirely unfit from their performance, show 
their ability as hare dogs or their worthlessness as any kind of

hound. Contrary to the opinion of many who breed hounds, 
an apology should never be offered for one. It has been my 
experience that a hound which will lie, back track, potter, loaf, 
riot, etc., today, will do the same thing tomorrow, if given an 
opportunity. Such hounds should be stamped as worthless and 
eliminated at the earliest possible moment, for no man ever saw 
a successful hare or fox race when such were allowed to con- 
tinue. 




F. T. CH. PATCH 



To prove this very important point, let me illustrate. I had 
in a pack under judgment twelve hounds; two were back track- 
ers, four were babblers. The hare passed along in front of me 
to a road, then back, placing me in the point of a V, then to 
right across the road. When the pack came to this poin^ the 
babblers were successful in holding my good hounds, and the 
back trackers, getting away full tongue on the back track, were 
successful in breaking up the race entif-My. Another hare was 
soon started, with the same result. Ii\ another stake, I had 
five hounds ; two were exceptionally good hare dogs, two were 



154 The Beagle in America 



faulty and one was ;*.st hound. Five hares were put up and no 
race lasted longer than ten minutes. After eliminating the 
faulty hounds, as good a hare race as any man could ask for 
went on continuously for three hours. 

No hound can do intelligent team work, which is necessary 
when running in a pack or brace, if associated with lying or 
faulty hounds, but under all other circumstances and conditions, 
sick or well, scent hot or cold, if he is the right type of hare 
hound he will stamp upon his work the finish of the mechanic, 
and when running with other mechanics will present to the 
judge an opportunity to use his knowledge, both theoretical and 
practical, in recognizing the. quality, both as it concerns the 
individual and as it relates to the others in the competition, and 
if a sportsman, he will give his decision from the standpoint of 
unprejudiced and impartial observation.

Introduction: A well established pack of beagles is cer- 
tainly a great asset to any country, and can give a great deal 
of pleasure and sport to many people. Why do people go out 
with foxhounds? There are many answers to this question. I 
shall ask the reader to picture a meet of a well known pack of 
foxhounds; there are about 150 people present, all mounted on 
various types of horses. You ask, "Who is that old gentleman 
on the grey cob, and why does he come out?" Answer, because 
he has been hunting all his life. On inquiring the reasons for 
many others being present you are told : Because his doctor 
told him to hunt; because he wants to reduce; because he wants 
to improve his appetite ; because he enjoys the sociability of 
hunting; because he likes to ride and jump fences; because he 
thinks it is the thing to do ; because he likes a day in the open 
and is glad to get away from the office. 

At last in the course of the conversation you ask why a cer- 
tain young man is there, and are told that he is a real lover of 
hounds and loves to see them work. Now a man or woman 
that is a real lover of hounds and who loves to see them work, 
will get far more sport out of beagling than one who goes out 
with the little hounds for any of the other reasons. I have rid- 
den to hounds all my life and am very sure that one can get 
closer to hound work and see more of it with beagles than with 
big hounds. 

Beagling is financially possible for many that cannot afford 
to keep a string of hunters and there is really no age limit.* 
It is certainly a most healthful and clean form of sport. I have 
seen over seventy people out with Mr. Reynal's beagles at Mill- 
brook, Dutchess County, New York, including many ladies and 
children, as well as older people who would not again see sixty. 
A young man without doubt gets a lot of good out of football 
and baseball, as well as other games during his school and col- 
lege days, but exercise of that kind does not fit into his life to 
any extent after entering business, and his family cannot share 
them with him. Beagling is not a game, but it is a sport that 
can be followed for a lifetime. 

I have always been extremely sorry that some of the large 
boarding schools and colleges do not maintain a pack of beagles. 
There are many situated in countries well adapted to beagling, 
and it would be a great thing for the students to be able to

get out with the little hounds a couple of days a week during 
the season. The boys could meet the expense by subscription, 
and in a short time it would be considered an honor to be elected 
Master of Beagles, perhaps as great an honor as captain of the 
baseball team. Many young men have begun with beagles and 
have found them a most useful school, both for hunting hounds 
and for kennel management, an experience that proved a very 
great help to them in after years when taking over the master- 
ship of a pack of foxhounds.

There may be a few packs that I have no records of, but the 
above figures are very nearly accurate. At any rate, the figures 
show to some extent the popularity of hunting on foot with a 
pack of hounds across the Atlantic. Included in the list given 
above is the Christ Church, a college pack whose first master 
was Mr. A. P. Gould, and who had them from 1876 to 1879. 

The New College, Magdalen and Trinity, is another college 
pack establshed in 1896 as a private pack, the property of New 
College; in 1902 Magdalen joined as part owner, and in 1912 a 
further amalgamation was made with Trinity. 

Mr. P. W. Nichalls was the first Master. 

The Royal Agricultural College established a pack in 1893 
with Mr. Leveson Gower as its first Master. 

Trinity College also had a pack established in 1902 with Mr. 
D. Hoare as Master. 

Exeter College and Balliol had a pack, the property of the 
Master and Whippers-in, started in 1903 with Mr. L. L. Gould- 
ing as Master. 

The Eton College started a pack in 1906 with Mr. Philip 
Wroughton as Master. 

In 1913 there were 51 packs of beagles listed in the Kennel 
Stud Book of the Association of Masters of Harriers and Beagles 
as against 21 packs in 1919. 

The Ampl-iforth College started a fresh pack in 1917 with the 
Rev. E. Ethelred Taunton, address, Ampleforth College, Mal- 
ton, Yorkshire, as Master. 

In 1913 the Belray (fresh pack) is listed, with the American, 
Raymond Belmont, Esq., as Master. Address given, Nevill 
Holt, Market Harborough, England, and 43 Exchange Place, 
New York City. Mr. Belmont is a member of the National 
Beagle Club of America. 

The packs of beagles mentioned above hunt hare, and in 
England it is only the very small packs that are used to hunt 
rabbits. These little hounds are sometimes called Pocket 
Beagles and are in height about 9 to 10 inches. In America, 
in the East, there is only one country that I know of in which 
a pack of beagles is established that can boast of native hares. 
I will speak of this country later. Mr. George B. Post estab- 
lished the Somerset Beagles in the beautiful country about 
Bernardsville, New Jersey, in the early eighties, and shows 
good sport with them for a short season on rabbits. I have seen 
over seventy people out with them.

I have never hunted with beagles except with a pack and do 
not know anything about shooting over them. I can, however, 
easily imagine the pride and pleasure a man may have in his 
three or four hounds, to see them work and bring a rabbit within 
range, where he may shoot her or miss, as the case may be. On 
the other hand, I should think that it would be very easy for 
the man who has always shot over his little hounds to appre- 
ciate the pride and pleasure a man takes in hunting a good pack. 

To Start a Pack of Beagles: I should certainly prefer buying 
from a well established pack as many hounds as possible that 
had worked together, as in this way you are sure to get good 
results much sooner than by picking up drafts of a few couples 
here and there. It takes some time for hounds to get to know 
and trust each other. There are seven days in a week, six of 
them are hunting days and the Sunday is a day for the flags; 
therefore, hunting qualities over bench qualities are as six to 
one. I consider that thirty hounds, or rather, as hunting men 

•This pack, now given up, was used for drag purposes, most of the field be- 
ing children. The Middlesex Beagles were also used for drag purposes and 
showed most excellent sport. Sec article by A. H. Higginson, Esq., in book,

say, fifteen couples, is a desirable number of hounds to have 
out, especially hunting hare. 

For the sake of argument let us say that you have bought 20 
couples and have started to hunt a little before your regular 
season. You have very few people out, as you have not ad- 
vertised as yet any meets. After hunting a few times you get 
to know something of your new hounds and immediately draft 
(get rid of) one or two that are too slow, one or two that are 
too fast, and one that runs mute — this is a very bad fault. A 
pack of hounds should work in perfect accord with each other — 
team work, so to speak ; when one hound speaks they all should 
go to him at once. A babbler is about the worst hound you 
could have; he is a liar; he speaks when there is nothing to 
speak to ; he will only fool the old hounds once or twice, but 
will do a lot of harm to the young ones. A few babblers in a 
pack will tend to make the good hounds too independent and 
they will not want to go to each other. A skirter is to be avoid- 
ed ; this is a hound that is continually working too wide of the 
others. 

Let us imagine that you have gotten to the end of your first 
season, and naturally you must have young hounds coming on, 
for the old ones are getting older and a few are unsound, so 
you turn your attention to breeding. You would not under 
any circumstances breed any hounds that were not really good 
in their work. You will first pick out the hounds to be used as 
stallions, and the best workers of your bitches. It would now 
be well to pay some attention to type when mating. Should 
you be breeding any old bitches, be sure to mate them with 
young hounds, and vice versa. You might often want to breed 
for special working qualities, such as for nose, voice, drive, etc. 
Color, in my opinion, is of little importance. I have often heard 
the old saying, "A good hound cannot be a bad color," and it is 
a ery true. Many people prefer dark saddles, tan heads, with 
some white. A few hounds of a light color is an advantage, as 
they can be seen so much further, especially on plow or in 
broomsedge. I should certainly advise never breeding from a 
hound whose constitution is not the best. The result of such 
matings is bound to be a disappointment. 

As soon as your bitches show that they are in whelp they 
should be turned out ; they will do much better. I like bitches 
to be well divided when they whelp ; if warm enough, individual 
kennels, light enough to be easily moved, are very handy. They, 
can be placed in shady spots in a field. The slanting roof of 






3» 



H 




168 The Beagle in America 



kennels should be on hinges so that they can be opened to sev- 
eral different heights, for the purpose of ventilation and also 
that they may be cleaned out more readily and thoroughly. I 
prefer rye straw cut up for bedding. An old oat bag tacked 
down to the floor is very good for the first few days, especially 
in hot weather, and the puppies are better able to get up to the 
bitch, as their feet do not slip, as on boards. 

Puppies should be thoroughly wormed at about two months. 
I have found the following effective: }A grain Santonin in 1 
teaspoonful of castor oil, given in morning after a 12 hour fast. 
Next ; your puppies should be tattooed in the ears. A good sys- 
tem is in one ear S B, should your pack be the Somerville 
Beagles, and the litter mark in the other, such as 20 1, 20 2, and 
so on, the 20 standing for the year 1920 and the 1, 2 and so on 
for individual puppies. Your whelps are now ready to go out 
to walk. (That is, placing, say, one couple with a neighbor who 
cares for them.) There should be plenty of neighbors who en- 
joy the sport you show during the hunting season, who are 
only too glad to help sport to the extent of walking a couple of 
puppies. Puppies must be on fresh ground and a lot of them 
never do well about a kennel, so plenty of good walks are im- 
portant. While at walk about all they need is plenty of food, 
table scraps if enough are good, and if not enough they can be 
helped out with a bit of biscuit. A dry place to sleep and per- 
fect freedom. Children at a walk are a great benefit; the pup- 
pies soon become their friends and the fun is mutual. 

In case a Master of Beagles hunts hounds himself, he can 
get on very well with one man who acts as Whipper-in and 
Kennel Huntsman, otherwise he would need a huntsman and 
whipper-in, unless he had a very big establishment, in which 
case a kennelman would be necessary as well. 

The puppies at walk should be visited every now and then ; 
they may need another worming or a good dressing to prevent 
or cure a little mange. You will bring your puppies in from 
walk the following spring and a downcast, homesick lot they 
are for the first few days in kennels. You have named them 
before they went out to walk, but the walkers probably did not 
use the names. They now have to be taught their names, will 
need another worming and surely a good dressing. All hunt 
servants will have a secret mixture for a dressing and they will 
think it far superior to any other. Kennel manners have to be 
taught and the young ones have to be broken. 



170 The Beagle in America 



Kennel management of a pack of hounds is practically un- 
known to Americans ; for good hunt servants you must go to 
England. The young ones are put in couples, sometimes a 
young hound is coupled to an old one. It is more convenient to 
start in an enclosed grass yard. The method to be employed is 
to get hounds to understand that the whipper-in is not their 
friend and that the huntsman is. The latter should always 
leave the punishment of any hound to the whipper-in. After a 
bit the hounds are ready to go on the road ; in order to be gotten 
fit and ready for the coming season, their pads must be hardened 
and they must be muscled up all over. While on the road 
hounds should become free from all riot (a riotous hound may 
cause you no end of trouble and embarrassment during the sea- 
son) ; they should be steadied on eats, cur dogs, sheep, cows, 
chickens, etc. 

I certainly hope you have escaped distemper, which rarely 
happens, and if you miss it one year it often is far worse the 
next. Some believe in inoculations to prevent it. I am sure, 
however, that good nursing j s most important. A man's for- 
tune is made if he can surely prevent it or cure it. Nourishing 
and easily digested food in small quantities is important, as well 
a dry and warm quarters. Sunlight helps and cleanliness must 
not be forgotten. 

I have found the following a convenient method for keeping 
a record of puppies. An ordinary notebook, pages about 7x8 
inches, will do very well.

After your puppies have entered there is plenty of time to 
record them in your regular book of kennel records. 

Entering Young Hounds: It is best to take a few old and 
xtra steady hounds out with the young ones, and when they 
find and go away on a line, the young ones will readily go on 
with them, and the sooner they get blood the better. When you 
kill for the first time be sure to make a great fuss over the pup- 
pies and be sure that they get a taste of the worry. "Spare the 
rod and spoil the child" is an old saying that certainly applies 
to young hounds. Sttppose a young hound runs a cat; the 



17 2 The Beagle in America 



Whipper-in should get him by the stern (tail) immediately and 
let him have it down the ribs as hard as ever he can, calling 
"ware cat." The hound will probably not do much more work 
that day and may not even get his head down again, but he has 
learned one thing, and that is, he is to leave cats absolutely 
alone. Little by little your young hounds are learning what 
is wanted of them and they are getting very keen. Do not be 
discouraged about the hounds that are slow to enter ("enter" 
means start to hunt). I have seen many very good hounds that 
hardly entered their first season at all. 

Feeding: It is best for the one who hunts hounds to feed 
them, but very often this is impossible. It is not absolutely 
necessary; hounds will like you if you feed them, but they will 
love you if you show them sport. In the long run I like oat- 
meal and horseflesh as a diet. The oatmeal is the steel cut or 
pin head or rolled ; it is boiled in a copper (caldron) and should 
be stirred while boiling to prevent burning; when it becomes so 
stff that you can't stir it, it is cooked and it is time to dump your 
fire. This oatmeal pudding should then be placed in a cooler 
and it becomes quite firm. You may have enough to last sev- 
eral days, especially in cool or cold weather, when there is 
but little chance that it will turn sour. Your flesh is thoroughly 
boiled until it is so tender that it almost falls from the bones. 
It is easily broken up and mixed with the pudding in a feeding 
trough, which I prefer is made of wood, being lighter to handle 
than metal, and hounds that are very greedy are less apt to hurt 
their teeth. 

Good judgment is all important in the feeding of hounds. 
If you have a small pack I prefer drawing out the thin and 
slow feeders first and give them a good go, then draw the ones 
that do not need so much ; a glutton will need but a very short 
time at the trough. When you are sure a hound has had suffi- 
cient draw him from feed room back to lodging house immedi- 
ately. Of course, you would always feed your dog hounds first. 
Many huntsmen let hounds in all at once and draw back the 
light doers for a second go. A change of food is good ; in sum- 
mer you would not feed as much flesh as during cooler weather, 
but flesh is important when they go on the road. Cabbage or 
other greens is very good in summer ; they can be boiled with 
the flesh. Mule flesh is good, as well as a cow or steer. Of 
course, the soup is very good. Coarse corn meal or rice is the 
makings of a good pudding. If hounds had been on oatmeal 
for a time it might be well to gradually change and make a 



174 The Beagle in America 



pudding of part oatmeal and part rice. When hounds have had 
a hard day it is best to feed as soon as you can after getting 
in ; they may be reluctant to leave their benches if left there too 
long and it disturbs their much needed rest. After feeding 
hounds should be walked out ; in fact, the more they are walked 
out the better. 

Kennels: Beagles can be well cared for in modest sort of 
kennels. A lodging house for dog hounds and one for bitches, 
a cook house and feed room is necessary. There should be 
concrete yards to each lodge, to which hounds always may have 
access; with this arrangement it will be far cleaner in the lodg- 
ing rooms. I like a southern exposure. Concrete floors are 
better than wood, they dry quicker after washing down and I 
think that kennel lameness (rheumatism) is less prevalent 
where they are used. 

A hospital that can be heated is an advantage, and should be 
sunny. Over kennels a loft for storing rye straw and oatmeal 
is most convenient. A rat proof place for the oatmeal would 
save a lot of grain in the year. For the summer time large grass 
yards with shade are very good, but you can get on very well 
without them if hounds are walked out enough. It would be a 
great mistake to leave hounds in an unshaded yard during the 
heat of the day in summer, especially if the yards were of con- 
crete. 

Puppy Shows: Tt is a very nice thing for a Master of Beagles 
to hold an annual puppy show. The puppy walkers are, so to 
speak, the exhibitors. The show should be held in the morning, 
followed by a lunch. The prizes given are an incentive to the 
walkers, and as soon as a friendly rivalry exists among the 
walkers the advantages of sending puppies out to walk are 
bound to increase. 

Game: Anyone would have a poor time with a pack of beagles 
in a country that did not have a fair amount of game, and it is 
hardly fair to the hounds. Rabbits are the chief game hunted 
in Eastern America, and I have seen some very good hunts in 
New Jersey, where they seem to be very stout and were not in 
a great hurry to go to ground. I have seen capital hunts in 
Virginia on rabbits. I have seen wonderful hunts after Kansas 
jacks that were shipped East for the purpose and were put 
down a half hour or so ahead of hounds. In Westchester 
County, New York, several years ago I saw a 12 inch pack of 



176 The Beagle in America 



about fourteen couples hunt a jack for over three hours with 
but few checks and kill in the open. . 

Have never seen the Maine hare or snowshoe rabbit hunted, 
but am told that they take a lot of killing. The rabbits in West- 
chester County, New York, do not stay above ground very long, 
and those in Dutchess County generally go to ground even 
sooner. 

A good many years ago a certain resident of Dutchess County, 
New York, who had money, land and a hobby for game, im- 
ported a great number of German hare and placed them in a 
preserve of 2,500 acres, which was enclosed by a wire fence 14 
feet high. The fences became a bit worn and many leverets 
(young hares) escaped, so they soon began to breed and multi- 
ply and have been native to the country for years. The best 
fun with beagles that I have seen has been on these hares.* 
These hares have grown to be very stout, living in our climate ; 
some say stouter than the English hares. They do, however, 
take a lot of killing. I have seen big hounds (English fox- 
hounds) run for 25 minutes nearly straight and without a check- 
as fast as horses could gallop, hunting one of these hares, then 
check for a few minutes and go on for another half hour and 
not kill. And I have seen a hare live in front of big hounds for 
two hours with checks and not killed. So it is quite a feat for 
a 12 inch pack of beagles to kill one of these hares. Mr. Reynal's 
kill a few each year, and in so doing prove that they have drive, 
condition, stamina and courage. It is truly beautiful to see them 
hit a stale line (where a hare has been out feeding in the early 
morning) and has then laid up in her form) and slowly but 
surely, inch by inch, work up to and put her up. Then you need 
to befit yourself and a good pair of lungs are necessary. If the 
hare proves to be a straight necked one no man can live with 
them on foot; he can only run at them. A three mile point is 
not uncommon. These little hounds have been known to hunt 
the same hare for four hours. Again I make the statement 
that a well established pack of beagles is a great asset to any 
country. 

The Size of Beagles : This is really a matter of taste. I per- 
sonally prefer a 12 inch pack; it may be because I am not a 
very good runner. But they are plenty fast enough. I grant 
that it is harder to keep on breeding and keeping them to that 
size than a larger pack. A pack of 16 and 17 inches would give

great sport in parts of the South on grey foxes. Nearly all 
beagles are so very merry and cheerful in their work that they 
must appeal to a lover of hounds. When hunting they give one 
the impression that it is because they love it. 

A Few Hints to Hunt Staff: I should advise a man hunting 

hounds to draft any that be cannot trust absolutely; he might, 
however, be a little more lenient on bounds their first season. 
I should hate to have one of my field say, "There is a bound 
>peaking in that little cover." 1 answered, "Oh, yes, that is 
only old Bluebell." Well, it would be certainly better by far 
for your bounds if old Bluebell were among the missing. Hounds 
should know and like and trust a huntsman and should be suffi- 
ciently under control to go to him readily. When he throws 
them in to start to draw he should cheer them occasionally. A 
good hound voice is a gift and a great pleasure to hear. Some 
men are fortunate in having a clear and musical voice that 
hounds and the field can hear a long way off. The man born 
with it, if he is to hunt hounds, is indeed lucky. A voice can 
be improved and cultivated to some extent. In discussing the 
qualities of a hunt servant I have often heard, "Well, so and so 
is a very good whipper-in, but he has no voice," or "That boy 
we had whipping in for us last season was a good for nothing, 
but, my! what a voice he bad." 

Hounds should come readily to a. halloa and when the) go 
away it is the duty of the whipper-in to get all hounds on. Do 
t ot punish hounds when many people are about.* A whipper-in 
should carry one or two pairs of couples, especially during the 
early part of the season. , A whipper-in should put hounds to 
the huntsman whenever he blows for them, and with the least 
possible delay. In the field the. huntsman is boss, and this fact 
should not be forgotten.** Speaking of horns, 1 like the English 
far better than the old-fashioned American cow horn, believing 
it to be easier to blow, carries further, has a more cheery note, 
and is much better looking and easier to carry. 

Livery: Beagling coats are a dark green and most Masters 
have their distinctive colors; some have a distinctive button 
with initials or monograms on them. The cap is black velvet 
and soft. Most people wear golf stockings, some preferring 
heavy shoes with hob nails. I personally like high and very

i8o The Beagle in America 



heavy sneakers ; they are easier to run in than the leather shoes 
and far handier when climbing rail fences or stone walls. Spats 
are a great protection from the briars ; canvass ones are 
light and good looking and easy to wash. What is worth doing 
at all is certainly worth doing as well as you can, so I strongly 
feel that a Master should turn himself and his hunt staff out as 
well as possible. Many wear breeches and leather gaiters; I 
think that the gaiters are too stiff for easy running and are 
scratched by the briars. Breeches bind the legs to some extent. 
I prefer white corduroy* or moleskin knickerbockers, with ank- 
lets* of brown canvas, because they bind the instep less than 
spats and afford fully as much protection from the briars. The 
knickers with a strap and buckle below knee are a little less 
binding than breeches, but not cmite as smart. 

Man}' prefer a white stock. I think a white soft collar and 
white tie (four in hand) looks nearly as well and is more com- 
fortable. Gloves should be a part of the livery. Whips are 
necessary : I like a thong about 4y 2 feet long, not too heavy, 
but with a good belly to it, and a green snapper, a short, straight 
crop of about 20 inches covered with leather is Aery good. 
Keeper should be double. 

Stud Book: In England beagles are listed with the Associa- 
tion of Masters of Harriers and Beagles in their Kennel Stud 
Book ; a volume is gotten out each year. I feel sure that this is 
by far the best method for owners of packs, and should think it 
would appeal to owners of a few hounds as well. Registration 
with the A. K. C. (American Kennel Club) is the only official 
record that I know of in the East for dogs in general; but I do 
not know that that organization has ever been of any benefit to 
hounds. A man may have 25 couples of puppies in a year and 
he is hardly apt to register them all, hence there are likely to be 
many hounds grow up that have no official record. It would 
certainly be rather expensive to spend fifty dollars to register, 
?nd the only advantage would be in order to show at an A. K. C. 
show, and many of these puppies might not be show specimens.

To explain the system will say that the 2> l / 2 couples (seven) 
hounds in left hand column above constitute the 1919 entry 
from The Leigh Park. A hound is dated the year he enters, 
and NOT the year in which he is whelped. A hound takes the 
kennel name from the pack with which he is first entered and 
always is known by such. For instance: The Leigh Park 
Bracelet 1919 carries the same name no matter who may own 
her in after years. Solomon 1914 is The Leigh Park Solomon 
1914 and the same for the four dams. If Solomon had entered 
with any other pack the name would have been added. "Har- 
vester" is a fairly common hound name and there might be 20 
Harvesters entered in 1919, but The Leigh Park Harvester 1919 
could never be mistaken for any other. 

I am very strongly in favor of naming hounds with words of 
two or three syllables ; they are far easier to call and are more 
musical than names such as Jack, Sport, Bess, etc. Many packs 
name their puppies with the same letter as the bitch, for in- 
stance above, puppies from Hazel 1916 are Harlequin, Har- 
vester, Harmony and Hasty, all capital hound names. 

Does the Pack Owner Gain Anything by Sending His Hounds 
to Dog Shows in America? This is a good subject for debate. 
1 shall ask the reader to be the judge. Suppose Mr. Smith 
owned a pack of beagles and has been hunting them from about 
the middle of September to January 1st; a hard winter sets in 
and owing to deep snow hunting is out of the question. The 
Westminster Kennel Club Show is to be held in February. Mr. 
Smith talks it over with Jack, his kennel huntsman, and decides 
that they will show a few hounds in the single classes, also 
five couples in the pack class. They decide that they are will- 
ing to risk their hounds getting sick and can afford the necessary- 
expenses. For several weeks before the decision to show had 
been reached Mr. Smith had spent much time in town ; things 
were very slow and quiet at the kennels and Jack had felt a bit

discouraged. But now that he is to show his favorites he im- 
mediately takes on a renewed interest in his duties, and is look- 
ing forward to making the best possible showing. The Master 
orders new liveries for the event, and they both look forward 
with pleasure to meeting many old friends at the show and see- 
ing a wonderful lot of hounds. They will probably decide to 
breed a few bitches to some of the hounds they see, as they 
had long been in need of outside blood. Now it may be that 
they had thought that no one had hounds as good as theirs, and 
some of the conceit may be taken out of them. It may be that 
Mr. Smith's hounds are the best; if so, he is certainly doing 
other masters a great favor in giving them the chance to see his 
hounds. No matter how much one may know of hounds, there 
is always something to be learned. 

I am taking it for granted that the judge is a real hound man 
and, of course, fair in his decisions. The above are some of the 
advantages. Please bear in mind that the show qualities of a 
hound are very secondary to his working qualities. The beagle 
is not a show dog, but is a hound and is bred to work. I do 
not understand how any dog show can consider giving classes 
for other than two sorts of hounds : Entered and unentered. 
The American Kennel Club is the governing body for prac- 
tically all dog shows in America, and probably functions very 
well as such. They see fit to have a rule that certain classes 
shall be given, such as puppy, novice, limit, open, etc., etc. I 
do not think that such classes are for the best interests of 
hounds, as they are an incentive for owners to place too much 
importance on show qualities. 

Mr. Smith has an old hound. Gamester 19 — , that has done six 
seasons ; he has been an extra good hound in his work, but has 
never been shown. Naturally, he is a great favorite. On account 
of never having been shown he is considered a novice, and is 
entered in the class of that name. Mr. Brown also comes to 
the show and has entered Grasper in the novice class. Now 
Grasper is a very good type, but has not done any work, he is 
about a year and a half old and shows no signs of wear and 
tear. He rightfully beats Gamester and I feel that Mr. Smith, 
good sportsman that he is, would be perfectly justified in being 
\ ery sore. On the other hand, if Grasper had done as much 
work as Gamester 19 — and then beat him, Mr. Smith would 
take his defeat with a smile, and would be the first to congratu- 
late Mr. Brown, and would be willing to admit that the class 
was well judged.

I feel that the following classes are far better adapted for 
hounds than the A. K. C. classes:

Judging of Pack Classes at Field Trials: I feel that it would 
be a very great benefit to have one judge at least of the Pack 
Classes, a man who has hunted a pack of hounds himself. This 
man might not in any way be qualified to judge the other events, 
but he should be a great aid to men who were not in the habit 
of seeing hounds work in a pack. An old huntsman, even 
though he had been a foxhound man, would be especially fitted 
for the work; he would understand manners and control, he 
would appreciate hounds that drew well, he would immediately 
detect a babbler or a skirter, or a hound running mute. He 
would also appreciate good work under difficult conditions and 
hounds having good noses and plenty of drive. I should think 
that men who had not had this experience, and who were per- 
forming the very difficult task of judging at a Field Trial, would 
ask for a man having had this experience to help them in the 
Pack events. 

A Good Book on Hounds: There is much valuable informa- 
tion to be learned from "Hunting," The Haddon Hall Library, 
by I. Otho Paget. Esq., for many years Master of a well known 
pack of Beagles in England — The Thorpe Satchville. 

In conclusion will say that a man can start a pack on a far 
more modest scale than I have outlined above; he might start 
with eight or ten couples and in a very short time breed as 
large a pack as he needed.

BENCH SHOWS 

CONDITION AND HANDLING 

BY 

ARTHUR LITTLE 

HUNTSMAN WHEATLEY KENNELS, ROSLYN, N. Y. 



THERE is a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction in 
owning a beagle that is good to look upon, and more so 
if he is above the average beagle in conforming to the 
standard of the breed. While primarily we want the beagle 
for field work, he must be a well built, strong and health} 
specimen in order to attain the highest point of perfection. For 
that reason we have bench shows. The purpose of the bench 
show is the improvement of the breed. Besides, in the months 
between hunting seasons they are something to look forward 
to, and also tend to keep your hounds in the best of condition 
at all times. If you have a good looking beagle, don't be afraid 
to show him, thereby giving others the chance to also see him. 
Any owner who has confidence enough in the merits of his 
beagles to desire to show them, must bear in mind that ex- 
cellence in symmetry and formation will probably be thrown 
away if condition is bad. For exhibition purposes condition is 
everything. A first-class specimen, however grand he may be in 
many points, if his eyes are dull and listless and his coat ragged, 
cannot fail to suffer from comparison with a dog, which though 
perhaps inferior in some points, is lively and vivacious, thereby 
showing himself off to the best advantage when he is in the 
ring before the judges. The latter should — even if they do not 
always — judge a dog as he is before them, not reckoning what 
his performances have been or what merit he may develop with

age. In getting up a dog for the bench show, therefore, an 
owner should try and make him look his best, never losing sight 
of the purposes for which the breed exists, and trying to bring 
his hound into the ring not only looking well, but lit to do his 
duty. A sporting dog looks ludicrous when he appears fat and 
fiabby, and displays to everyone how utterly incapable he would 
be of doing half a day's work. 

Experience can only be bought by practice, but here is a 
notable fact for the benefit of beginners, viz: that the most suc- 
cessful exhibitors of any breed have been those whose dogs 



J o.>? vA * 




^llbSSrJsaJPfe 



WIXDHOLME S BARTENDER 



have been shown in the best condition. To attain this desired 
end is difficult and means lots of work and time ; by following 
certain rules, however, great progress can be made, and if due 
attention is paid to feeding, exercising and grooming, your 
hound will be vastly improved in both health and appearance. 
In selecting hounds for show, pick those with good type and 
good heads. In other words he must be a show dog before you 



The Beagle in America igi 



start to get him ready. Also select hounds of the same general 
conformation and color. 

In getting up dogs for show allow yourself if possible six 
weeks' time to prepare. Select the dogs you intend showing 
from your pack and keep them separate from the rest of the 
pack. The first thing to do is to thoroughly worm them. Re- 
member the most important part of worming is to thoroughly 
starve your dog first. Feed your dog in the morning and give 
him worm medicine the following morning, using any of the 
recognized preparations. See that they have a good, clean 
piace to live, free from draughts, and give them plenty of clean 
straw for bedding. Hunt them if you wish, being careful not 
to expose them to hardships unnecessarily. Do not hunt them 
the last week or ten days before a show so that they will not 
be all cut up with briers. 

Feeding. 

Feed your hounds well twice a day, morning and evening, 
feeding soft and mushy foods. Of the vegetables we use prin- 
cipally beets, carrots and cereals ; good, rich soups with plenty 
of meat and vegetables. Milk is also an important thing to feed 
at this time. Change the diet of your hounds from day to da\ . 
About two or three times a week add a tablespoonful of Blaud's 
Mass to the pot of food while cooking. A tablespoonful is 
enough for ten dogs. Blaud's Mass is a tonic preparation which 
can be bought either as a paste or powder from any druggist. 
Cod Liver oil is most efficacious in its effects on hounds. A 
tablespoonful a day will put flesh on him and add a great deal 
to the condition of his coat. Bear in mind to keep more flesh 
on your hounds for show than you would for the field trial. A 
week before the show feed carefully so that your hounds are all 
of the same weight and condition. 

Exercising. 

Hounds for show should be exercised on the road two hours 
a day. I generally ride a horse or bicycle for this work, packing 
the hounds behind me, and using macadamized roads, as it puts 
the hound's feet in fine condition, bringing them upon their toes 
and wearing the nails down, besides making them good and 
strong and well muscled. The last two weeks be careful to 



1Q2 



The Beagle in America 



avoid your hounds getting cold or wet. This will tend more 
than anything else to ruin any work you do on the condition 
of his coat. 

Your hounds must be trained to lead on a leash. The best 
wa}f to teach them is to start when they are puppies. Chain 
your puppies to a wall, using a short chain preferably. Leave 




CH. BELRAY CORA 



them this way for a couple of hours and do it every day until 
they get used to it. A show dog can easily be spoiled as a 
puppy by putting a leash on him and pulling him along, in 
other words cowering him into it. If you chain him first to 
the wall and then gradually teach him to lead, he won't get sore 
on anybody but himself and breaks himself to a lead. In the 
same manner teach them to lead on couplings. Always couple 
a young dog to an old gentle bitch and a young bitch to an old 
gentle dog when first starting them. This also holds good when 



The Beagle in America 



'93 



teaching young hounds to enter a pack. Packs should be trained 
to heel in an enclosure about fifty to one hundred feet square. 
Have at least two whips to start. Keep right after every hound 
and keep him heeled. Heel them first on couplings and gradu- 
ally get them accustomed to heel without couplings. Do not 
take them on the road until thoroughly broken to pack. Do 
not be discouraged if in the beginning they break on you, but 




CH. IMP. STOKE PLACE SAPPER 

get them back in the yard and try all over again. Discipline 
them if necessary. Never let a hound be disobedient, because 
if you let him get away with it once he will try it every time he 
gets the chance. Nothing looks worse than a pack over which 
there is no control. 



Grooming. 

Hounds should be groomed twice a day if possible. Have a 
bench in your kennel that is just the right height for you to 
comfortably handle your dog. Always use the same bench, and 
your hounds will become anxious to be groomed and jump on 
the bench when you call them. Brush your hounds with a hound 



iQ4 The Beagle in America 



glove which comes for this purpose. In the beginning you can 
brush in all directions until you get all the dead coat out. Then 
brush from the head to the feet. In other words brush with 
the hair. You will be amazed what a rich gloss the coat of 
your hound will show in a week or two of brushing. While 
they are on the bench pose them as you would for the show 
ring. Have him with his head up, stern up and legs straight. 
In setting a dog on the bench, lift his front legs off the bench 
gently with one hand under the brisket and the other hand 
under the jaw and set him down so that his legs are straight. 
Then take the hand from under the brisket, and lift him by 
the stern and set him so that his hind legs are straight. Then 
push him gently forward so that he stands on his toes. Take 
your hands away and make him hold his position. If you train 
him properly he will hold his position as long as you want him 
to. When you are grooming your hounds, teach them all the 
points of the show ring such as leading, showing and posing. 

Keep their eyes good and clear. See that they have no dis- 
charges from them. Use boracic acid or 1%- solution argyrol 
for any discharges of the eyes. Also examine their teeth. 
Hounds will accumulate a green stain at the base of their teeth, 
sometimes on only a few teeth. This stain can be removed by 
painting with tincture of iodine, and then rubbing with a little 
wet powdered pumice stone on an orange stick. 

This is a small point, but remember, a judge examines your 
dog's teeth among other things. As to washing hounds before 
a show, if a hound is fed good, well groomed and has clean bed- 
ding he won't need washing. 

When sending dogs to a show procure good crates. Any of 
the recognized makes are good. See that they have plenty of 
clean straw and food attached to crate if the trip is long. Route 
your dogs through the quickest way or better still go out the 
same time as your dogs. 

At the Show. 

Always get to a dog show in plenty of time. Make it the day 
before if possible. Get your dogs out of their crates as soon 
as possible so that they can stretch themselves. Lead your dogs 
around the show grounds, so that they become accustomed to 
the grounds and other dogs. If you do this your dog will have 
confidence and therefore show better. See that the benches 
f:re well bedded and adjust your chain so that the dog cannot 



iq6 The Beagle in America 

jump off the bench or hang himself. Take your dogs off the 
bench and exercise them three or four times a day. When your 
class is called be ready, and have your dog in the ring promptly, 
first if possible. Don't carry your dog into the ring. Make him 
walk in like a regular dog. If he can't walk in through the 
spectators and take care of himself he don't deserve to be shown. 
Get your entry number card from the ring steward and don't 
forget your number. From the time you enter the ring until 
your class is judged show your dog to the best advantage at 
all times keeping your dog before the judge's eye. This is very 
important. Even when the judge is looking at the other dogs, 
don't get in the corner and maybe talk to some friends outside 
the ring. When the judge calls for your dog on the bench get 
him there quickly. Pose him on the bench. A dog should not 
be posed in the ring, but as it is done at most dog shows and 
the other fellow does it you must do it in order to beat him. 
Tsing bread or meat (liver is best) to draw your dog's attention 
is permissible, but be careful you do not drop it on the floor, 
because he will then put his head down to find it and you will 
have a hard time getting him in position again. As soon as the 
judge makes his awards, get out of the ring quickly, returning 
your number card to the ring steward. 

In showing couples in the ring, have an assistant hold them 
on the leads and you stand in front of them with a piece of 
liver to call their attention. Keep them even and close together. 
In showing couples on the bench bear in mind that they must 
be matched as to color, height and general conformation. A 
couple of hounds, no matter how good they are as individuals, 
if they differ as to height or color will never win over a perfectly 
matched pair. 

Packs. 

In showing packs on the bench, five couples constitute a pack. 
At the National Beagle Club Bench Show at the trials, eight 
couples are usually shown. Hounds must be as near alike as 
is possible : all the same height, color and general appearance. 
Packs must be shown with master and whipper-in, whose ap- 
pointment must be perfect. The correct costume for a master 
of beagles is a black velvet hunting cap, a dark green coat with 
buttons carrying the letters of the hunt, and collar with the 
colors of the hunt, a white stock tie with a plain pin, white cord 
or linen breeches, long green stockings, black or brown anklets

and white gloves. A copper or silver hunting horn is carried 
carelessly in the bosom of the hunting coat and fastened with a 
strap to the top button. He also carries a brown thonged crop 
with the tassel the color of the hunt. 




CH. FANNHALL MERRYMAID 



The whipper-in should be dressed the same, except that he 
does not carry a horn, but carries on a strap crossed over the 
shoulder the couplings neatly rolled up. All judges differ on

methods of judging packs. Have your pack perfectly trained 
and under perfect control and it won't make any difference what 
paces the judge puts them through. There is no prettier sight 
than a well handled pack of beagles in a show ring. Especially 
when there are four or five packs competing. There is no greater 
pleasure or compensation for the work it entails than to have 
a pack of beagles and win with them. 

Let me repeat in closing that in order to win on the bench 
you must try and do just a little more work on your hounds than 
the other fellow.

MY TRIBUTE TO THE 
BEAGLE 

BY 

WILLET RANDALL 



When the summer days are over, 
With the fields no longer green; 
And the lavish hand of Nature, 
Daubs her war-paint on the screen; 
There's a thrilling recreation, 
Born of ages long since dead, 
That revives our dormant spirits 
As we through the woodlands tread. 

As we gaze in breathless wonder 
At the gorgeous colored skies, 
Swallows gone, but robins linger, 
Bluebirds chirp their mournful cries. 
Now the frost has hit the pumpkin 
And made crystals of the dew ; 
But Hurrah, there's sport awaitin' 
For the beagles and for you. 

If there ever was a pleasure 

That this quaint old world can yield, 

Tis my rambles through the woodlands, 

With my beagle pack afield. 

How I love to catch the echo, 

Wafted back from hill and dale, 

As the wise old crafty leader 

Rides astride the twisting: trail. 



The Beagle in America 



Oh, how often in the twilight, 

As the shadows glided by, 

Have I stood in breathless silence 

Listening to the beagle's cry. 

How my heart has pumped with gladness, 

As I vowed all night I'd stay, 

When some youngster I was training, 

Picked the check, and got away. 

Was there ever sweeter music? 
What is there that can compare 
To the wailing of the beagles 
As they press the bounding hare? 
Airships buzz and motors flicker; 
Submarines can plow the sea ; 
But for thrilling recreation, 
Tis the beagle pack for me. 

If you chance to be a novice, 
And true information seek, 
You will find within these pages 
Everything is quite complete. 
Here you'll find the honest records. 
Proof of victory long since won. 
\nd 'twill tell you of the battles 
Rivals fought from "sun to sun." 

If you never owned a beagle. 
There's a pleasure you have missed : 
And you never can redeem it, 
Till you have one, I insist; 
They are full of love and spirit, 
They will fill a place at home. 
And their charming ways and manner 
Almost melt the heart of stone.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE BEAGLE. 

Mr. Prentice has honored me by inviting my assistance in 
the production of his book on the beagle, but I hope he will 
not be held responsible for the opinions herein expressed. The 
actual origin of the beagle is lost amongst the dim mists of 
ancient days and no research can ever bring a truthful history 
to light. Everyone has therefore a perfect right to form his 
own independent idea of the type of hound used by Alfred the 
Great for hunting, when that celebrated king was not engaged 
in fighting or baking cakes. 

I think we may take it for granted that, in the days of the 
bow and arrow, hunting would be more popular than shooting, 
with sportsmen of tho^e times, so that the breed of dog which 
hunted by scent would be preferred. During the Roman occupa- 
tion of this island, it is more than likely the scattered legions, 
in their various garrisons, would amuse themselves with hunt- 
ing, and that they would have brought with them from Rome 



zo6

hounds of some sort. According to Xenophon, there were 
hounds that hunted by scent in his day, and the Romans ac- 
quired many of the sports of ancient Greece. There were, how- 
ever, in England packs of hounds before the time of the Romans 
and it is on record that Pwyll, Prince of Wales, a contemporary 
cf King Arthur, had a special breed of white hounds of great 
excellence. Wales to this day is still celebrated for its hounds, 
generally of a light color.

Admirers of shooting dogs, setters, spaniels and other breeds, 
have had the audacity to assert that those inferior latter day 
animals were used in building up the hound. By the exercise 
of a little thought it will be seen that this must be wrong and 
in fact it is the other way about. The hound was the original 
progenitor of all sporting dogs. The two distinct breeds would 
be the gaze or greyhound, and the hound that relied entirely on 
its nose. 

Let us come down to a somewhat later date, and perhaps it 
would be as well to start with the days of good Queen Bess, 



The Beagle in England 



before the Mayflower carried John Hampden's friend across the 
herring pond. I think by then nearly every country gentleman, 
or at least one in each district, kept a pack of hounds of some 
sort and hunted the animal of his choice — at that period the 
fox was not an honored beast of the chase. The large sort were 
(ailed buck hounds, and the smaller variety were called beagles, 
from the French "begle." The buck hounds were chiefly in the 
hands of the crown and principal nobles, the chase of the deer 
being then a royal prerogative. 




STOKE PLACE "ARCHIE," 1903 

Champion Stallion Hound (Bea*jlesJ t'eterborough, 1904, 

The hare was generally the most popular quarry, and a breed 
of hounds most suitable for hunting that animal was eventually 
produced. With no railway facilities to get an interchange of 
blood, and with each owner of hounds having different ideas 
as to what he wanted, it can easily be seen that in course of 
time, packs would show various marked differences in type and 
size. We may, however, be fairly certain that the majority of 
sportsmen would select and breed from those hounds which had 
the best noses and were good in their work. 



2o8 The Beagle in England 



Coming down to the middle of the eighteenth century we 
have more reliable evidence to go upon. Somerville, Beckford 
and "Essays on Hunting" by an author unknown, help us to 
form a fairly accurate idea of the hounds then in use, but even 
at that late date, it is necessary to supplement their written 
words with the aid of common sense and imagination. That 
these men were authorities on hounds and hunting is easy to 
see, but it is impossible to suppose that they were acquainted 
wfth all the various packs in England. 

Fox hunting was then becoming popular with the younger 
generations of men, who wanted something quicker and more 
exhilarating than watching hounds puzzling out the intricate 
windings of a hare. The foxhound was undoubtedly evolved 
from a mixture of buckhound and beagle. By this time the 
vagaries of breeders had produced two distinct types of hare 
hunting hounds, one of which was called the southern hound 
and the other the north country beagle. The former was slow 
and ponderous, with long ears and deep voice, whilst the other, 
according to the author of the Essay was the exact opposite. 
Here is his description : "The North country beagle is nimble 
and vigorous and does his business as furiously as Jehu himself 
^an wish him." These were undoubtedly the two extreme types 
which had been developed from the same original stock, through 
being bred in distant parts of the country for several generations, 
but it is easy to understand that packs existed which combined 
the best qualities of both — the happy medium, for which we all 
strive. The writer of the Essay was evidently also acquainted 
with the smaller beagle, as he says, "There is yet another sort 
in great favor with small gentry, because they eat but little : 
These, as their noses are very tender and not far from the 
ground, I have often seen to make tolerable sport, but without 
great care they are flirting and maggoty and very apt to chaunt 
and chatter on any or no occasion." "Maggoty" in those times 
meant capricious or full of whims and a hound of the kind that 
could not be trusted. "Chaunting" was doubtless babbling and 
fiom that we may gather some breeder of small hounds had 
bred from parents with those faults. 

I think we may accept it as a proved fact that by the middle 
of the eighteenth century, there were beagles varying in size 
from twenty-two inches to five, and in spite of this difference, 
were all descended from the same stock. There is ample evi- 
dence to prove that the beagle, which was spread over the whole 
of England and Wales, had been bred with such different ends 



210 The Beagle in England 

in view that there were hounds of various shapes, sizes and 
colors. In the face of this evidence there are people today who 
lay down the law about what they call "the correct type" and 
the '"old fashioned beagle." 

Here is where I am going to disagree with many admirers of 
the beagle, and perhaps tread on the corns of my friends in 
America, but we are all entitled to have our opinions. The way 
I look at it is this, that the beagle is a hound, and the hare was 
for generations the quarry he was bred to hunt. The hound 
that has the best nose and shoulders; is persevering, patient and 
stout; has a good voice, gets on with the scent and does not 
lie on the line; has no such fault as babbling, skirting or running 
mute, that is the animal yon want to breed from, no matter 
what his type. The individual owner may have a liking for 
iwhat he is pleased to call a "well denned stop," a prominent 
eye and long, thin ears, but unless the hound possessed of these 
points acquits himself with distinction in the hunting field, he 
should be hung before he has time to transmit his imperfections. 

The Beagle Club in England, or I suppose some of the mem- 
bers, did take it on themselves to lay down a hard and fast 
scale of points, but 1 think very few judges took any notice of 
them. The show-bench has done its best to ruin many of our 
sporting breeds, and I protest strongly against it being allowed 
to spoil the beagle, but if the faddists who keep hounds to look 
at and not for hunting, have a voice in the matter, the breed will 
soon lose some of its best qualities in the field. 

The end of the eighteenth century found the popularity of 
tht beagle on the wane and the establishment of foxhound packs 
\.\ every county supplied the poorer gentry with all the hunting 
they wanted. Although a few packs were kept up, there was 
great danger at that time of the little hound disappearing 
altogether and becoming extinct. 

I may be wrong, but think we are largely indebted for the 
preservation of the beagle to the farmers and landowners of 
the southern counties. In Sussex and Hampshire, it was the 
custom to keep packs of beagles for driving the rabbits to the 
gun — a base and ignoble duty for the descendants of the packs 
our ancestors cherished, but had it been otherwise much valu- 
able blood would have passed out of existence. In the less 
rideable parts of Ireland and amongst the Welch hills, beagle 
packs still existed, which helped to supply hounds when the 
revival commenced. 



The Beagle in England 



In the middle of the nineteenth century Parson Honeywood 
got together a very good pack and showed some excellent sport 
in Essex. I date his pack as the beginning of the beagle revival, 
and nearly every well known pack at a subsequent date owed 
its origin to that blood. The colored engraving "The Merry 
Beaglers," is as familiar to American sportsmen as it is to any- 




HALSTEAD PLACE FLAGRANT

cne in England, and will preserve for all time the name of the 
Rev. Philip Honeywood. Now this picture has been mentioned, 
I should like to draw the attention of those sticklers for the 
one particular type to the different hounds portrayed. Although 
I have very little faith in any artist at that date being correct 
in detail, the owner of the hounds would take care that he did 
not go far wrong, and we may assume that the picture gives us 
a fair idea of what they looked like. 



The Beagle in* England 



Necks and shoulders seem to me to have been their chief 
assets, and I warrant they were able to move. A good shoulder 
is the most important feature in the confirmation of either horse 
or hound. The colors of the hounds would most certainly be 
faithfully painted, and it will be noticed that no dark tans are 
there. I admit the beauty and attractiveness of what is called 
the "Belvoir tan," but the craze for that color has been the 
means of eliminating- some of the best hunting blood both in 
beagles and foxhounds. The further history of the beagle I 
will deal with in another chapter.

THE HALSTEAD PLACE "CONTEST," 1909 

1st Prize Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 1913 

The Harrier and Beagle Association in England have fixed 
sixteen inches as the standard not to be exceeded by beagles. 
If a pack of fifteen-inch hounds cannot kill a hare nearly every 
time they go out they are not much good. Personally I prefer 
thirteen inches, but fourteen inches is big enough for any coun- 
try, and hounds of that size ought to be able to go all day in 
deep plough or rough woodland. 

It behooves me as an Englishman, writing for an American 
book, to point out some of the differences that exist in the hunt- 



The Beagle in England 



213 



ing methods of the two countries. From my slight experience 
in the United Stales, I found that hares and rabbits were classed 
alike, both being known under the latter name. The hare in 
England is born with eyes open and the hair on, whereas the 
rabbit is born blind and comes into the world naked. They are 
two distinct species and a cross between them is a hybrid. I 
imagine that although the animal which is hunted in the Ameri- 
can field trials resembles our rabbit, it is in reality a small 
variety of the hare (lepus). 




THE TRINITY FOOT "FORESTER," 1906. 

Champion Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, l"n. v . 

The English hare has been hunted now for many generations, 
and has inherited an instinct of cunning that adds zest to the 
triumph of its final capture. It also possesses great strength 
and staying power, so that, when not bustled at the start, a 
chase will often last from two to three hours. Small beagles 
for this kind of hunting must therefore be built on true lines, 
or they will tire before the hare. 

In America I understand people often keep a couple of hounds 
which they use for driving game to the gun, and of course in 



214 The Beagle in England 

that case, extra good hunting qualities are not brought into 
play. A very moderate hound will run and hunt well whilst 
the scent of the animal pursued is fresh, but it requires a good 
nose combined with patience and perseverance, to pick out the 
faint line of a beaten hare. 

If my American friends will forgive me, I should like to point 
out this as one of the essential differences between the aims of 
breeders in the two countries. Many more qualities are required 
for breeding a perfect pack of beagles to hunt the hare in Eng- 
land, than would be necessary in the work of single hounds in 
A merica. 

I have never yet had the pleasure of attending a field trial 
in America, and am therefore not entitled to form an opinion, 
but it appears to me that putting down two strange hounds to 
hunt together, may not bring out the best points of either. 
However good a hound may be in his own pack, he may very 
likely hesitate to go to the cry of an unfamiliar voice, the owner 
of which may, for all he knows, be a liar. Then an inveterate 
skirter might shine with only one hound to compete against, 
and skirting is one of the worst faults that can be brought 
against the members of a pack. Independence is also a fault 
which I should think would be difficult to detect. 

If the day happened to be good for scent, a hound with only 
a fair nose might run well, which, in less favorable conditions, 
might not be able to own the line. These are some of the rea- 
sons that occur to me which make the field trial a not infallible 
test of merit, but it must be very interesting to watch and doubt- 
less assists in keeping good hunting blood to the fore. Perhaps 
its greatest use is in eliminating the show-bench beagle, whose 
only pretensions to being a hound rests on his appearance. 

The first lot of hounds I sent to America went to Mr. William 
Iselin of New York, and a very good lot they were. The next 
I think, were some I sold to Mr. James Kernochan and 
amongst them was Florist, which I understand proved a very 
successful sire. He was a trifle too big for me and to my mind 
rather flat sided. The best hound I sold to Mr. Kernochan was 
Leader, by Monitor-Lawless, but his color, badger pie, was not 
then popular in America, and I fear he was neglected, but I am 
quite certain that hp would have got first rate sto»:k, both for 
looks and work. With him went a hound called Truman, which 
I heard did some winning, but I knew nothing of his breeding 
and had only a poor opinion of his work. Amongst the bitches 



The Beagle in England 



215 



I sold to Mr. Iselin was one called Garnet and my only reason 
lor parting with her, was that she was too fast, but I have never 
ceased regretting having sold her. Since those early days I have 
sent many good hounds to America. Another bitch that I was 
sorry to have let go. was Sunbeam, to Mr. Newell Bent. 




MR. JOHNSON'S BISMARCK 



I have never heard whether she bred him anything or what 
became of her. I fear that many of these hounds fell into the 
hands of men who did not appreciate their worth and in con- 
sequence much valuable blood was wasted. Mr. Appleton and 
Mr. Reynal, however, have still some of the blood they 
originally bought from me. 



216 The Beagle in England 

THE PRESENT DAY ENGLISH BEAGLE. 

Mr. Prentice has asked me to sketch a short history of the 
beagle in England, from the time of Mr. Johnson's Monarch 
down to the present day, which is roughly about thirty years, 
and also coincides with the period I have been connected with 
the breed. 

Before commencing, it would be as well to offer my apologies 
to the reader of this work for writing in the first person, and 
also for introducing hounds that I have either owned or bred, 
but the details about my own pack will at least have the merit 
cf being correct. 

Mr. Thomas Johnson was the nineteenth century pioneer of 
improvement in the beagle's appearance, and being a first-rate 
judge, was able to collect the material for the formation of a 
pack which has had great influence on the breed. Although 
Mr. Johnson chiefly devoted his attention to breeding a pack 
which should excel in looks, he was able to select hounds which 
had been bred for many years entirely for work. 

The Bronwydd (Sir Marteine Lloyd's), The Royal Rock, the 
Cheshire, and the North Worcestershire provided him with good 
hunting blood, and as those packs had either a fifteen-inch 
>tandard or over, he was able to secure hounds that were too 
^nall for them. The debt we owe Mr. Johnson is chiefly for 
having recognized at once the good qualities of Bismarck, whom 
the Cheshire had brought over from Ireland and then drafted 
for lameness. 

His son Monarch, out of the Royal Rock Melody, took the 
champion cup at Peterboro for three years in succession, which 
is, of course, ample testimony to his good looks. From my 
recollection of him I should say he was a hound of great bone, 
substance and character. Beagles have improved in looks vastly 
since those days, and I fear if Monarch could return now he 
would have to take a back seat at Peterborough show. He was 
a badger-pie, a color that almost invariably denotes good hunt- 
ing qualities, but which I fear is not popular in America. 

The best bitch Mr. Johnson bred was, I think, Countess, and 
amongst others was a smart little bitch called Puzzle, but the 
credit of breeding Bangle belongs to the Cheshire. Being too 
small for them, they passed her on to Mr. Johnson, who sub- 
sequently won the cup with her at Peterboro in 1898, the posi- 
tion her litter sister, Cymbal, had occupied the previous year. 



The Beagle in England 



217 



Hounds are difficult enough to judge when you have them all 
before you, but it is an impossible task to make comparisons 
between individual specimens of different years, when you have 
to trust to memory to recall their points. Although I cannot 
say Bangle was the best bitch I have seen, she was certainly 
one of the best. Mr. Johnson very rightly set great value on 
the blood he had acquired, and was much averse to using stallion 
hounds from other kennels unless nearly related to his own. 




THE CHAWSTON "GUARDSMAN," 1900 
Champion Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 1906. 

This was all very well for a few years, but the result of such 
close in-breeding was bound to tell in time, and the last lot I 
saw before he gave up were very weed)-. 

The Royal Rock, the pack from which Mr. Johnson selected 
most of his bitches, is supposed to be the oldest established 
pack in England, and their blood is believed to have had its 
origin in stock that came from Mr. Honeywood. 

In my earliest recollections of the Royal Rock I recall two 
very useful dog hounds, Brawler and Craftsman, which might 
have been used bv other kennels with advantage, but unfor- 



218 The Beagle in England 

cunately they did not appeal to most people and were neglected. 
I bred a very smart bitch by Brawler and always regret I did 
not use him again. 

Bellman was probably the best stallion hound the Cheshire 
bred, and there are few packs now that do not contain some 
of his blood. He was entered in 1892, but it was not until later 
(four years) that he won the Champion Cup at Peterboro, al- 
i^cugh rather curiously, his son Dauntless had anticipated his 
sire's success the preceding year. 

Bellman, a grandson of Bismarck, was responsible for many 
good hounds and probably one of the best was the Chawston 
< mardsman. This hound was quite straight, full of quality and 
a beautiful mover, but was rather light of bone, though Mr. 
\ddington assured me the longest day never tired him. and the 
country hunted was chiefly heavy plow. 

The Cheshire Bellman I think owed his good looks in a great 
degree to his dam, Beauty, who bred another Peterboro winner 
in Benedict, and was also the grand dam of two winners of the 
cup for the best bitch at Peterboro, viz.. Cymbal and Mr. John- 
son's Bangle. 

In 1900 the cup for hast dog hound was won by the Hulton 
Camester which was by Mr. Johnson's Finder, out of Gypsy by 
the Cheshire Dauntless, out of Graceful, the latter a very beau- 
tiful bitch. It was in that same year the Chawston won in the 
class for couple of bitches with Cobweb and Roguish, also win- 
ning the cup with the former. Both these bitches were by the 
Rodmersham Topper, a hound of exceptional merit, quite 
straight and with lots of bone. I tried to buy him in 1892, to 
send with others to Mr. W. Iselin in New York, but could not 
persuade his then owner, Mr. Mercer, to part. 

It was in 1901 that the Chawston Guardsman won the Cham- 
pion Cup, and then four years later he met the Hulton Gamester 
in the stallion hound class when he had to put up with second 
place, though successful in 1906 for that class, defeating the 
Surbiton Prompter. 

In 1902 the Stoke Place began to be prominent in the prize 
list at Peterboro, and their Marksman won the cup that year, 
but I cannot remember much about the hound now. The fol- 
1< wing year the same pack again took the cup, and on that 
occasion the winner was Archie, by the Chawston Guardsman. 
This was a very beautiful hound, but lacking in masculine char- 
acter, a most important point in any animal that is to become 



The Beagle in England 



2IQ 



a sire. Archie was not a successful stallion hound, and from 
what I could gather he was not altogether a shining light in the 
hunting field, but there was a soft strain on the dam's side which 
must have neutralized the good qualities of his sire. 




WOODDALE "REVELLER," A., 1917. 
Champion Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 1909. 



Here let me ask my American friends to take warning by this 
example, and beware of using hounds that have been kept for 
show, instead of for work. Archie's dam was by a very good 
looking sire, but he had never been asked to prove his worth 
in a hard day's hunting. Americans when they buy hounds 
from this country very naturally try to get them as good look- 
ing as possible, but I fear they do not always ascertain whether 
the sires and dams are good workers. The result is that many 
hounds have gone to the United States which ought to have 
been hung. 

Although Trinity College were the owners of Magistrate 
when he won the cup in 1904, the credit of breeding the hound 
belongs to the Stoke Place. Magistrate was a very powerful 



The Beagle in England 



hound and got some good stock, but there is no doubt his shoul- 
ders were inclined to be heavy. This fault, I must confess, was 
the result of a mistake I made when I first started beagles. At 
that time I bought a very good draft from the Stockton, and 
amongst them was a bitch called Primrose, with great bone, but 
shocking bad shoulders. As she was straight with good feet 
and plenty of bone, I hoped to correct her defects by using a 
dog with exceptional shoulders named Dreamer. A very prom- 
ising litter was the result, but the original defect of the dam 
would crop up. 

The Trinity Magistrate was by the Stoke Place Monitor, by 
the Bronwydd Marplot, out of their Pastime, which was by their 
Pilgrim. The latter hound I bred myself and he had many 
good points, but he inherited from his grand dam — the afore 
mentioned Primrose — her bad shoulders. The Surbiton Prompter 
was another good hound with heavy shoulders, and he had also 
inherited them from the same source, being a grandson of the 
Bronwydd Pilgrim. 

I have told this story against myself for the benefit of younger 
men, and to illustrate the results which will assuredly come 
from any laxtt] in the selection of breeding stock. 

In 1904 Mr. James Russel started the Halstead Place pack 
and the following year he took the cup with Searcher. No one 
before had ever met with such instant and brilliant success, but 
that success was not temporary, and continued to the outbreak 
of the war, when to everyone's regret the pack were disbanded. 

From 1905 to 1914 the Halstead Place carried off the cup for 
the best dog five times, which is a record in the annals of 
Peterboro. In the other five years the cup was lifted by the 
Halton Ranter, the Christ Church Boaster, The Trinity College, 
Forman, The Worcester Park Lucifer and the Leigh Park 
Danger. Ranter was a son of Gamester and inherited his sire's 
good qualities. Boaster, I cannot remember, but as he has not 
left many descendants it does not matter. 

Trinity Forester was a fair hound with many good points and 
I believe left some useful descendents. Lucifer did not appeal 
to me, though he was straight and had plenty of bone. Danger 
was a very smart hound with lots of quality, but perhaps lack- 
ing in bone. I have not yet seen any of his progeny, but I 
expect they will be good, though he will have lost time and 
opportunities through few hounds being bred during the war. 
He was by the Wooddale Publican and I bred his grand dam 



The Beagle in England 



Dorothy. The Wooddale Publican does not figure in the prize 
list at Peterboro, not being eligble on account of his dam, but 
has left behind him some extraordinary good stock, both for 
looks and work. 

There are two strains of harrier in Publican, not the harrier 
of foxhound parentage, but the old fashioned sort which had 
hunted hare for generations, and as I have endeavored to show, 
is a near relation of the beagle. Mr. Goff, the late master of 
the Wooddale, is much too good a sportsman to introduce blood 
into the beagle except for improvement, and those who have- 
any of this strain may rest assured it had the best of credentials 
in the hunting field. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, 
?nd no pack of its size has such a good record of kills as the 
Wooddale. Unfortunately they are now dispersed and their 
late master is condemned to hunting rats in a hedgerow. Pub- 
lican's grandsire was a hound it was almost impossible to fault, 
t-xcept for color which was that unpleasant chocolate tinge. 
Reveller, though not eligible to compete for the champion cup 
at Peterboro, took the cup for the best stallion hound in 1909, 
but his services as a sire were unfortunately not available for 
long, an express train cutting short his career. He was one of 
the many good sons of that successful sire, the Halstead Place 
Searcher. 

The moment has now arrived when I must write of this hound 
and of others belonging to the same pack. Mr. Russel and 
Halstead Place will forever be identified with the name of 
Searcher in the beagle world. I think it may be of interest to 
readers of this book to have an extended pedigree of a hound 
that has exerted such a wide influence over the breed, and the 
blood of which may be found in nearly every kennel in England, 
as well as in America. 

Searcher was, I think, the best hound I have ever seen. His 
head was the only part about him that did not quite satisfy me, 
but that is a minor detail. 

I have already given my opinion about having a hard and 
fast scale of points. The shape of the head is immaterial to 
me, square on top, domed or pointed matters not, if the hound 
is good in conformation, well balanced and satisfactory in his 
work. There is, however, something in the expression of a 
hound that is difficult to define, and impossible to include in a 
scale of points. There is no harm in each having his individual 
fancy about the shape of a beagle's head, but it is absurd to 



The Beagle in England 



expect other breeders to be bound by such fancies. Somerville 
gives rather a nice description of impression in "The Chase." 
". . . See there with count'nance blithe 
And with a courtly grin, the fawning hound 
Salutes thee cowering, his wide opening nose 
Upwards he curls, and his large sloe-back eyes 
Melt in soft blandishments and humble ioy." 
Personally, I prefer the beagle to be of a kind and cheery dis- 
position, but that is merely a fad of mine. 




THE WORCESTER PARK "LUCIFER," UOJ. 
1st Prize Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 1911. 

This is a digresson and we will return to the Halstead pack. 
Mr. Russel was, forunately, not tied down in starting for want 
of money, and if he really liked a hound, he did not mind pay- 
ing a good pn'oe, but he showed excellent judgment and made 
very few mistakes. Much of his success was due to his excellent 
selection of bitches, the Chawston Roguish being responsible 
for two winners of cups for best bitch, with Rachel in 1906 and 
Relish in 1919. Chorus he bought from me at Leicester sale and 



The Beagle in England 223 



she was the dam of Careless, a cup winner, as well as Chancellor, 
who was the sire of Comrade, Challenger, Craftsman and 
Clinker, all four winning the champion cup in their respective 
years. Chancellor was a son of Searcher and worthily upheld 
the honours of his sire. 

Before finishing with this pack, I ought not omit mention of 
Forager, a hound Mr. Russel bought in 1904 when he first 
started. Although not quite straight, Forager was a rare good 
sort and justified his purchase by getting very excellent stock. 
He was bred by the Pettings (Mr. Hulkes) by Prater-Frantic. 
Prater being by the Cheshire Clinker out of Mr. Johnson's 
Puzzle, a very smart bitch already mentioned, whilst Frantic 
was by my Cruiser out of the Candleshoe Fruitful. Of course. 
Forager was overshadowed by Searcher, and perhaps did not 
get the same opportunities as that illustrous hound, but he left 
some first rate stock behind him. 

Your very painstaking editor has asked me to add to what 
I have already written and to amplify my notes on the various 
packs. The fear of taking up too much space and of boring 
readers of this book with details of past history, was my reason 
for only sketching an outline of the years that are gone. How- 
ever, the intelligent breeder of hounds and also the enthusiast 
can never know too much about the ancestors of his pack, and 
there is no need to apologize to him for dipping deeper into 
the chronicles of bygone days. 

There have been numerous other packs not mentioned here, 
which flourished for a season or two only and then disappeared, 
but my intention is to select those which have had a direct 
influence on the breed, leaving an impress on their descendants 
scattered over England and America. 



The Bronwydd. 
Sir Martin Lloyd, Bt. 

Although the Royal Rock have the credit of being the oldest 
established pack, I always look on this as being the one which 
has contributed more than any other to the excellence of the 
present day beagle. 

Sir Thomas Lloyd started the hounds in 1846, and the present 
baronet carried them on until his numerous other duties obliged 
him to give them up in 1897. This was the breakup of the 



224 The Beagle in England 

original pack, and though beagles were kept in later years they 
were, I think, maintained by annual purchases and not by 
breeding. 

I bought most of the hounds in couples in 1897, and several 
went to Mr. J. L. Kernochan of Hempstead, Long Island. 
Amongst those was Merryboy, which had won the champion 
cup at Peterboro in 1894. A very nice hound this, of great bone 
and strength, but with not the best of shoulders, a point in 
which the Bronwydd usually excelled. 

Most of these hounds were much too big for me, averaging 
between fifteen and sixteen inches, but I was so much impressed 
with Forester that I used him to several bitches before passing 
him on. Unfortunately through distemper and other causes 
most of the pups died, but one named Feudal survived which 
was the sire of Cicero, the best hound for work I ever bred. 

Fenian and Forester were shown in the couple class at Peter- 
boro in 1891, but though they did not take a prize, they were 
commended and to my mind were the best type of beagle in 
the show. 

There was very little to chose between the two brothers, but 
Sir Martin had evidently preferred Fenian, as he had used him 
pretty freely and neglected the other. I sold both hounds to 
a man who was just starting a pack and who shortly afterwards 
gave them up, when they disappeared and some valuable hunt- 
ing blood was lost. 

Nigel won the champion cup in 1892, and was sold then to 
Mr. Wood of Newbold Revel, who was getting a very nice pack 
together, but gave them up after about a couple of years and 
the hounds were dispersed. Sir Martin was not one of those 
who sacrificed hunting qualities on the altar of good looks, and 
though Nigel was an exceptionally handsome hound, he did not 
quite satisfy his owner in the field and was consequently sold. 
Would that all masters of the present day were as particular, 
giving more attention to hunting qualities and less to winning 
prizes at shows. 

The Royal Rock. 

This pack is, as I have said, the oldest established in England 
at the present time, but unfortunately they have rather wasted 
their opportunities by not breeding or at least only very spar- 
ingly. However, they are still going and some of the bitches 
trace back to the old stock, which was very good. 



The Beagle in England

That great sportsman, Colonel Anstruther Thompson, had 
bought eight or ten couple of beagles from Parson Honeywood 
in about 1843, and when through regimental duties he was 
obliged to give them up, they were bought by some Liverpool 
men and became the foundation of the Royal Rock. 

The Cheshire. 

I have very little to add to what is already written of this pack. 
They began their existence about 1856, and had masters with 
varying terms of office, usually short, until Mr. Blain took them 
in 1892. His mastership, which lasted about eight years, was 




Best Hound over 12 



MR. J. RUSSEL'S "RELISH." 

i. and not exceeding 16 in., Rugby Beaj 



Show, 19H 



marked with very successful results at Peterboro, as in addition 
to winning the champion cup on three occasions, he carried off 
the cup for the best three couple no less than six times. Much 
outside blood was brought into the kennel from Ireland and else- 
where, but the majority of the best hounds were bred from the 
Royal Rock either on the sire or dam's side. The pack con- 
tinues to hunt the same country, but as fewer hounds have 



226 The Beagle in England 

been bred of late years they have not maintained their reputa- 
tion at Peterboro. They, however, deserve well of the beagle 
world for having bred Bellman, a hound that was not only good 
looking, but also first rate in the field, and ran up with the pack 
in his twelfth season. 



The North Worcestershire. 

Although this pack had been in existence five or six years 
previously, it is chiefly identified with Mr. E. H. Humphreys, 
who was master and huntsman from 1882 until 1898, when it 
was dispersed. 

On a foundation of first rate hunting stock, sires of proved 
merit were used, chiefly from the Bronwydd and Royal Rock. The 
result was a pack with a reputation for its ability to hunt and 
catch hares in a country where hounds had to do all the work 
themselves. The master, however, was content if his hounds 
performed the duty for which they were kept and did not aspire 
to 1 Vterboro honors. In consequence, others masters who had 
not seen them at work, failed to take advantage of the blood by 
using the stallion hounds, an omission which they and all those 
who have the interests of the breed at heart must now regret. 

Hie pack, unfortunately, changed hands twice within three 
years after leaving the North Worcestershire kennels and even- 
tually was distributed in different parts of the country, Mr. Allen 
Turner securing some of the best for the Surbiton. The beagle 
owner of today who finds the prefix "North Worcestershire" in 
the pedigree of his hounds can rest assured that it stands for 
quality in appearance and hunting powers. Ferryman by Chal- 
lenger by Gambler was a little before my time, but was the 
sire of some first rate stock, both in his own kennel and the 
*Bronwydd. 

Ploughman by Sir William Curtis's Ploughman by the Bron- 
wydd Ploughman was an exceptional hound in his work, and I 
-ent a bitch to him entirely for that reason, as I had not then 
>een him. The result was Wisdom, which was destined to be- 
come the paternal ancestor of the celebrated Halstead Place 
Searcher. 

In some of the country hunted by Mr. Humphreys, foxes 
were very numerous, and as it was a district impossible to ride 
over, he was asked by the M. F. H. to stir them up with the 
beagles. The reply was that he would do it, but should kill 



The Beagle in England 227 



it he could. A brace or more were then hunted and killed by 
these fifteen inch hounds. 

On one occasion after a good run and when the fox was dead 
beaten, Ploughman caught a view, raced up to and killed him 
single-handed. This proved the hound to be of great courage, 
in addition to possessing an excellent nose and immense stay- 
ing power. 

Everyone regretted Mr. Humphreys was obliged to give up 
the pack, but he still takes great interest in beagles, retains the 
arduous post of honorary secretary to the Masters of Harriers 
and Beagles' Association and, in spite of age, is very much to 
the fore when he pays a visit to other packs for a day's hunting. 

The Worcester Park. 

This pack was started about 1886 by London business men 
who wanted both sport and exercise. The country hunted is 
being hemmed in with houses, but they still show excellent 
sport. 

When I first saw them Mr. Simpson was the master and he 
continued to hold that position until about 1900. Having many 
other interests in addition to his business he was unable to 
devote his whole attention to the pack, and was obliged often 
to leave kennel matters to various vice-masters. In 1892 the 
standard aimed at was sixteen inches, but they had many 
smaller hounds and I was unable to secure several of these in 
the formation of my own pack. There was amongst them 
a very beautiful bitch called Dorothy, equally good in looks and 
work, many of whose descendants I still have. Breeding was 
done on only a very limited scale, which was a great pity, as 
there was some excellent blood in the kennel. The result was 
that the pack did not improve as it should have done and was 
chiefly maintained by drafts. 

In 1903 Mr. Jamieson became master jointly with Miss Blake, 
and the pack has made a steady improvement since that date, 
until it has become one of the best looking packs in England. 
This year (1920) Mr. Jamieson carried off nearly all the prizes 
at Peterboro, which is in itself a proof of its excellence. This 
result has only been attained by hard work and good man- 
agement. 

In 1893 the Worcester Park Rambler and Bertram were sec- 
ond in the class for couples, and won in the bitch class with 
Willing and her daughter Wasteful. The same pack also won 



228 



The Beagle in England 



the three couple class that year, which proves my contention 
that they had plenty of good material and did not make suffi- 
cient use of it. Bertram was an old hound at the time he was 
shown, but had more quality and carried his years (ten) well. 
He was the sire of the aforementioned Dorothv.

Dog Championship, Peterborough Show, 1889, 1890, 1891. 



In 1911 the fruits of Air. Jamieson's good work began to reap 
their reward, and his Lucifer won the champion cup at Peter- 
boro that year. I must admit that Lucifer, in spite of many 
good points, did not appeal to me. With good bone, excellent 
legs and feet, he lacked the freedom of movement in the should- 
ders, which is essential in a hound. 



The Beagle in England 22Q 



Prompter, the winner of the champion cup this year is a 
hound of great suhstance with first rate legs and feet. He is 
by the Wooddale Publican out of Lavish by Monarch by the 
Halstead Place Monarch. He should get some good stock out 
of moderate sized bitches, as he is himself a full sixteen inches 
and therefore likely to breed them too big unless care is used in 
the selection of the dams. 

The West Surrey. 
(Late the Surbiton.) 

This is another pack similar to the Worcester Park that caters 
for the amusement and sport of London business men. It also 
has had the disadvantage of frequent changes in the mastership, 
and though it was in existence some eighteen years earlier, 
my acquaintance with the pack only dates from 1900. 

In that year Mr. Allen Turner became master and during the 
eight seasons he held office, the hounds were greatly improved. 
No man could have taken greater pains and trouble to bring 
the pack to perfection. He was fortunately able to buy the 
Crofton Beagles when they were given up and these were in 
reality the North Worcestershire. 

Nosegay and Nimble were, I think, the five best bitches in 
the Surbiton Kennel, and with better luck should have bred 
some first rate stock. They were by the North Worcestershire 
Nigel out of Pancake by the Cheshire Clinker out of Mr. John- 
son's Puzzle. I cannot now trace any of their descendants in 
the present pack, which is a great pity, as the blood was equally 
good for work and looks. 

Mr. Turner was a great supporter of the Reigate hound show, 
and was very successful there, winning many cups and prizes. 
I think his favorite hound was Prompter by Mr. Kelly's Pedlar 
out of Peaceful, very good looking with excellent legs and feet, 
but rather heavy about the shoulder. There was some uncer- 
tainty about the breeding of his dam Peaceful, but she was 
undoubtedly one of the old Surbiton lot, though her pedigree 
had been lost, and that prevented her son from competing at 
Peterboro. Mr. Kelly's Pedlar was bred by the Bronwydd 
and was by Pilgrim, a hound I bred and eventually sold to Mr. 
Kernochan of Long Island. There have been several changes 
since Mr. Turner resigned, but under the mastership of Mr. 
Wyer, who is in office at present, I think the pack will come to 
the front again. 



2jo The Beagle in England 

The Thorpe Satchville. 

Taking the packs in order to seniority my own comes next 
on the list. It was some time in the Autumn of 1890 that I was 
given a couple of blue mottled thirteen inch hounds, named 
Bitter and Brevity. First rate hunters with good voices, I bred 
them together and have still some traces of the blood left 
through Bellman, a very good looking beagle I sold to Mr. 
Reynal. He was by Mr. Allott's Bellman, which was by the 
Thorpe Satchville Workman out of their Bluebell by Bitten out 
of Brevity. 

One of the best hunting bitches I ever owned was Mockery 
by Mr. Gilbert's Trueman out of Sir William Curtis' Mayfly. 
Both sire and dam had the credit of being road hounds, which 
means exceptionally tender noses. I bred a good deal from this 
bitch and her blood runs through nearly every inmate of my 
kennel. The only way to retain the excellence of a particular 
bitch and to transmit her qualities, is to in-breed to her through 
her descendants in the direct female line. I valued this blood 
very highly and had several representatives through different 
branches descended direct from Mockery at the outbreak of the 
war, but through accidents and other causes. I came back to find 
they had all gone. 

Mr. Clucas bought a very good bitch of this blood named 
Xosegay, whelped in 1911, and Mr. Newell Bent one called 
Sunbeam born in 1907, but have never heard whether they bred 
anything. If there is a bitch in America descended from either, 
I shall hope to bring her back to England. In 1892 I was able 
to get a bitch from Sir Martein Lloyd that was too small for 
him. and which with the assistance of Mockery has helped to 
build up my pack. She was by the North Worcestershire Fer- 
lyman out of Lavish and is in the stud book as the Bromvydd 
Lawless. 

His son Leader by Monitor Tempter out of Mockery, I sold 
to Mr. Kernochan about 1895. but fear his color, badger-pie, 
prevented him being used as much as he deserved in America. 
His litter brother Loyal was the sire of some of my best hounds. 
Another good dog. Lawless, bred by me was known as Mr. 
Ouare's Lictor. which was the sire of the Wooddale Peaceful. 

Lictor's sister Languish accompanied by Prudence won me 
my first prize at Peterborough in 1894. Harmony, a great 
granddaughter of Lawless, was the best all-round bitch for 



The Beagle in England 



work I ever bred or owned. Although barely twelve inches, she 
tv\as always amongst the leading hounds when scent was good. 
and however fast the pace, but when nothing else could touch 
the line, she invariably put the pack right. Her daughter 
Mindful, though born in 1908, is still alive and hunted all lasl 
s< ison.

es, Rantlagh Hound Show, 1909. 



Dorothy by Worcester Park Bertram out of their Daisy was 
the third bitch that formed the foundation on which I built the 
pack. She was good in her work, but not quite up to the stand- 
ard of the other two, though very successful in breeding good 
stock. Her descendants include the Halstead Place Chorus, the 
dam of several Peterboro winners and the Leigh Park Dunger. 
? champion cup winner. 



The Beagle in England 



Chorus's sire Fencer was also descended in the female line 
from Dorothy. He was known as the Cirencester Fencer by 
Thorpe Satchville Finder out of their Dauntless and got some 
first rate stock before going to America. 

I occasonally introduced fresh bitches into the pack, but 
have never yet found anything to excel Mockery, Lawless and 
Dorothy. Those are the female lines on which I have based all 
my breeding, and for my own convenience have numbered them 
one, two and three. However, quite lately I have added a fourth, 
which rather curiously traces back to a bitch I bred and sold 
in 1893. 

After acquiring the aforementioned Mockery, I went to see 
her breeder, Mr. Gilbert, and bought several hounds from him. 
This pack had been kept and bred for several years without any 
attention to looks, the best hounds for work being mated to- 
gether. The result was that they were light of bone and, in 
fact, had little in their appearance to recommend them — prob- 
ably very much in-bred. Unfortunately, I did not then realize 
the value of the material thus secured. Amongst this lot was a 
bitch called Truelass, from which I bred, but they were a little 
too big for me and they were all sold. 'Mr. Foster of the Pen-y- 
Ghent bought Needy, and it is descendants of hers that I now 
call my number four family. 

Garnet, a daughter of Truelass, I very foolishly sold to Mr. 
Iselin and fear she was never bred from in America. My rea- 
son for parting with her was that she was too fast for the rest of 
the pack, but have never ceased regretting that I allowed her to- 
leave my kennels. 

There was yet another bitch named Willing that exerted con- 
siderable influence on the working qualities of the pack, but 
regret that I have now none of her descendants. Willing was 
by the Stockton Warrior out of Mischief, and the pedigree of 
the latter I could never ascertain, but she had won prizes and 
was a very good looking bitch, being also first-class on her work. 
Willing was the dam of the Delapre Gamester and Grasper, 
two hounds that left some extraordinary good stock and one — 
I forget which — eventually went to America. She was also the 
cam of Wiseman, the great grandsire of Halstead Place 
Searcher. There was another son of hers called Workman 
which might have done great things, had he not caught a chill 
coming back from hunting and died in his first season. He, how- 
ever, left behind him one son, Mr. Allott's Bellman, the sire of 
my Bellman, already mentioned. 



The Beagle in England 



233 



I may seem to be dilating and becoming garrulous about my 
own pack, but it is not that I think it better than any other, 
only that I am more familiar with the various elements on 
which it was founded. The student of pedigrees and believer 
in the power of heredity will need no apology from me for 
going deeply into the history of hounds, whose descendants are 
as widely spread in Amerca as they are in England. 




HULTON "GAMESTER," 1900. 

Champion Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 190 



Having the advantage of living in a grass country, my aim 
was to breed a pack as small as possible. Beginning with 
fourteen inches I gradually brought it down to twelve, and at 
the outbreak of war, many of the hounds were then under 
twelve. Hunting two days a week from the beginning of 
November to the end of February, I was able to kill an average 
of twelve brace of hares in the season. 

Keeping the pack down to this limit meant that frequently 
1 was obliged to part with some of the best looking hounds that 



234 The Beagle in England 

I had bred. Two instances of this were the Stoke Place Peace- 
ful in 1902, and Mr. Price's Peaceful in 1907, both winning- the 
champion cup after I had sold them. It was, of course, a satis- 
faction to see hounds win of my own breeding, but it was a 
serious handicap to the pack. 

Considering that my hounds were always at the disadvantage 
of competing against others much larger, I had a fair amount 
of success at Peterboro, but am not now going to enumerate 
the different winners. My most successful year was 1903, when 
1 won the three couple class, as well as for couples for unen- 
tered and entered bitches. My first win was in 1894 with Lan- 
guish and Prudence, the latter subsequently going to America. 
Dog hounds I very seldom showed, but Rector and his son 
Cruiser were second in a strong class in 1902. 

However, it matters not now what the judges thought in 
those days, and at any rate their decisions are on record, whereas 
it is only the owner who can truthfully give the hunting char- 
acter of his hounds. 

The three best dog hounds 1 had for work were Nominal and 
Rector (1897) and Cicero (1906). The latter had more drive 
than any beagle I have ever known, was never tired and was 
always at work. He was by the Hulton Feudal out of the 
Thorpe Satchville Fairmaid. Feudal I bred and sold to Mr. 
Hemitage, being rather too big for me. 

The Stoke Place. 

Mr. Howard Yyse. 

This pack was started in 1905. and as many others have done. 
began with smaller hounds and gradually increased in size until 
the average was fully fifteen inches. Mr. Vyse is a very good 
judge of a hound and was not satisfied until his pack was one 
of the best looking in England. It was a great loss to the beagle 
world when the pack was given up and the hounds dispersed. 
In a previous chapter I have already mentioned the Stoke Place 
Archie, and there is hardly space enough to mention all the 
good hounds bred in these kennels. The Peaceful he won the 
cup with in 1902 was by the Thorpe Satchville Cruiser, as also- 
were Primate and Whynot, bought at the same time. 

Whynot was a beautiful hound, but unfortunately was not 
straight, and owing to this deficiency was not very extensively 
used. Being rather on the small side for this pack, he eventu- 
ally went to the Lichfield Garrison, where he sired Chorister 



The Beagle in England 23s 



and Concord, both exceptionally nice hounds and winning the 
class for unentered in 1910, the latter winning the champion 
cup in 1911 and the former subsequently becoming the sire of 
Cora, which won the cup for Mr. Belmont in 1913, and was the 
best looking bitch I can remember. The Stoke Place had many 
successes at Peterboro, but their triumphs were chiefly with 
bitches. The hound that has left the largest impress on pos- 
terity is, I think, Scholar, and a large percentage of winners 
today will be found to have his blood in their veins. He was a 
great grandson of Solomon, which I sold to the Stoke Place and 
was a hound of exceptonal bone, but unfortunately died early 
and just when his merits as a sire were becoming known. 
Scholar's dam was a very good looking bitch and very well 
bred. Many other packs are indebted to this for improving 
their general appearance, and it is difficult to decide whetlur 
the Stoke Place or Halstead has exerted the greater influ- 
ence. The most noticeable feature of the Stoke Place was 
quality. 

The Chawston. 

I am not quite sure when this pack was first started, but Mr. 
Addington did not enter any hounds in the stud book until 1897. 
and he very seldom bothered to show at Peterboro. He kept 
his hounds for hunting and I have never seen a better working 
pack. My only criticism of them in the field is that I should 
have liked a little more tongue. Guardsman was the hound 
by which the Chawston will be best known, but there were 
many other excellent hounds in the kennel at different times 
that were good enough to use. Mr. Addington was very modest 
about his pack, and if breeders at a distance had only paid him 
a visit they would have found several potential sires. Mr. 
Russel secured Roguish for the Halsted Place and that bitch 
added very materially to his ultimate successes. 

The Hulton. 

This pack began its existence in 1898 and very soon acquired 
fame. Whether credit is due more to one brother or the other 
I do not know, but Mr. T. C. Armitage was master for the first 
few years and then handed over to Mr. L. L. Armitage. 

Their first success at Peterboro was in 1900, when they won 
the champion cup with Gamester, a position his son Ranter 
occupied in 1906. In addition to several minor wins they twice 



2j6 The Beagle in England 

carried off the cup for the best three couples, which is in itself 
always a guarantee of the general excellence of a pack. The 
Armitages were at great pains to secure the best working blood 
and there was a strong mixture of Mr. Johnson's strain in the 
pack. Gamester was by Mr. Johnson's Finder out of Gipsy, a 
Cheshire bred bitch. 

I never managed to give myself the pleasure of seeing this 
pack either in the field or in the kennel, but after seeing their 
hounds at Peterboro and knowing how they were bred, my idea 
is that they should have earned a greater reputation. After 
1906 and until the pack was given up five years later, no mem- 
bers of it competed at Peterboro. The Hulton was in existence 
for twelve years, had built up their pack on excellent founda- 
tions, and had bred some very good hounds, but today there is 
very little of that blood to be traced in the stud book. My idea 
is that they depended too much on the strength and influence 
of the male line, without giving sufficient attention to the female 
tap root. A pack may rise to great eminence for a few years 
solely on the merits of one or two stallion hounds, but it's repu- 
tation is only fleeting and will die away, unless it is founded 
on the rock of a sound female lineage. 

My advice to a young breeder is, get the best bitches money 
can buy, prove their worth in the field, cast out all that fail in 
that test, and breed from the remainder until they die of old 
age, using a different sire every year. In the course of time he 
will be able to use his own sires and in-breed to the great grand 
dams. 

The Wooddale. 

Mr. E. C. R. Goff started this pack in 1901 to hunt that part 
of Sussex which is within a radius of Billingshurst, and though 
there is some grass, the majority is heavy clay. Hounds of 
about thirteen inches were first tried, but they were found too 
small to cope successfully with this country, and the pack 
eventually attained an average height of something over fifteen 
inches. 

Mr. Goff was unfortunately by no means a millionaire and 
could not always afford to buy the hounds he would have liked. 
It is therefore much to his credit that he succeeded in breeding 
a pack which has never yet been excelled for its capacity to 
catch hares. The master of the Wooddale was not only a very 
sound judge of a hound, but was a first rate huntsman, and 



The Beagle in England 237 



being a good runner was always near enough his pack to appre- 
ciate both virtues and vices of its individual members. How- 
ever good looking a hound might be he was never kept unless 
he reached the very high standard in the field which his owner 
had set up. 

In a previous chapter I have already alluded to Reveller and 
his grandson Publican. The latter I cannot recall very clearlv 
except that he had good legs and feet, but what impresses itself 
en my mind was the high character his owner always gave this 
hound for work in the field. 

Publican being responsible for the champion cup winner of 
this year, is certain to have numerous descendants in the future, 
but there are few packs now that have not already been benefited 
by his blood. 

Halstead Place. 

Having already written fully on this pack there is not much 
left to be said, but my references were chiefly to the dog hound-, 
the extraordinary number for one kennel to produce in ten 
years and their potency as sires. The most successful of 
Searcher's sons as a sire was, I think. Chancellor. 

Mr. Russel appreciated the value of a good bitch and much 
of his success was due to the selections he made. 

Searcher's dam Gracious was, perhaps, the most fortunate 
purchase he ever made, and her influence on the pack was very 
far-reaching. Her grand dam, Gayless, was brought from 
Ireland by the Trinity College, but unfortunately without any 
pedigree, although I understand she proved herself extraor- 
dinarily good in the field. The Springhill bought a bitch named 
Gorgon by Forager out of Gracious, which produced some first 
rate stock for that kennel. The other two bitches that materially 
assisted Mr. Russel were the Chawston Roguish and Chorus, 
which he bought from me. Later on he bought Mrs. Price's 
Peaceful, but the fruits gathered from her were in the last days 
of the pack, when it was eventually sold and, I believe, went to 
America. Everyone was sorry that Mr. Russel left the beagle 
ranks and turned his attention to other things, but we hope that 
some day in the near future he will again be bitten with the 
love for the little hound and get together another pack. If that, 
however, does not happen, the Halstead Place will be a name 
that will live forever amongst breeders of the beagle.

The Springhill. 

This pack was got together by Mr. George Miller and Mr. 
Cecil Nickalls about the same period the Halstead Place started. 
They were both great admirers of Mr. Russet's hounds, and 
were indebted to him for much of the blood with which they 
ultimately built up a first-class pack. Forager was rather too 
-mall for the Halstead Place, but when being transferred to 
the Springhill he sired some excellent stock and everything by 
him proved good in the field. Many very beautiful hounds were 




bred in this kennel, but there was no better hunting pack in 
the country, and it will be remembered more for those qualities 
than for appearance. 

There are several other packs that deserve mention, but these 
have been the chief factors in building up the beagle today. The 
two college packs, Christchurch Oxford and Trinity Cam- 
bridge, have been in existence for a number of years, but owing 
to the frequent changes of mastership they have lacked contin- 
uity in their aims and have not progressed as they might have 
done. The Christchurch had some beautiful hounds, five and 
twenty years ago, but the Trinity have left the greater impress 



The Beagle in England 23Q 



on posterity and Forman's name runs in the pedigrees of many 
good hounds. This reminds me that the Halstead Place Mon- 
arch, a winner of the stallion hound prize at Peterboro and the 
sire of many good ones, was descended from a Trinity bred 
bitch. Music was her name, and I can remember seeing her 
do some excellent work with the Rothley. It also should not 
be forgotten that Searcher's dam was Trinity bred. I had 
forgotten that Mr. Russel bought the Rothley, a pack founded 
on Trinity blood and which was of considerable assistance to 
the Halstead Place. 



MATING AND BREEDING. 

Mr. Prentice asked me to devote one of these articles entirely 
to mating and breeding, but, though much might be written 
on the subject, I can give my opinion in a few lines. The 
beagle is a hound whose business it is to hunt, and in selecting 
parents, the requisite qualities for that purpose should be the 
first consideration. If you can combine it with good looks, by 
all means do what you can to improve the appearance of your 
pack, but, however good looking a hound may be, never breed 
from him or her if there is a slightest indication of a bad hunt- 
ing fault. The sire should, when it can be found, have good 
bone and substance, as by breeding from a light boned dog the 
tendency is to get weedy. Should a dog hound show excep- 
tional qualities in the field, do not neglect him because he is 
light of bone, but take care that the bitches you put to him do 
not fail in that respect. Do not allow your own judgment to 
be warped by the decision at a show because you, who can see 
your hounds galloping over the fields, can form a better opinion 
of their merits than the man who only sees them for a few 
minutes on a board. 

After all, "looks" should mean the combination of strength 
and activity, so that the judge who gives the prize to the hound 
quickly, must obviously be judging on the wrong lines. When 
possible, always try to ascertain the history of the hound's 
ancestors, for any marked fault in them is always liable to 
come out. 

I attach much greater importance to the female line than I do 
to the male, though I think the latter has a greater influence on 
appearance, whereas the former transmits hunting qualities, such 
as nose, etc. 



240 



The Beagle in England 



If you have a bitch that has proved herself extraordinarily 
good in the field, get pups from her as long as she will breed and 
treasure her descendants. 

I am not a believer in very close breeding, and when done 
it is important that the parents should have no fault. In-breed- 
ing has the tendency to accentuate and fix bad qualities as 
well as good.

THE HALSTEAD PLACE "SEARCHER," 190S. 
Champion Stallion Hound (Beagles), Peterborough, 1907. 

My principle is to in-breed to the female line and cross out 
with the male line. It should be understood that the direct line, 
either male or female, has a greater influence than any interme- 
diate ones. 

In England we have improved the beagle in appearance very 
considerably during the last twenty years, and everyone tries 
to breed something that will excel in looks. The Halstead Place 
Searcher's extraordinary success tempted most beagle men 
either to use him or a son or a grandson, with the result that 
now it is very difficult to find a sire that is not in that hound's 
direct male line. Although I was a great admirer of Searcher, 



The Beagle in England 



241 



it is a mistake to narrow the available channels of the male 
lines, and I should advise using lines which trace to a different 
source.

THIRTY-SIX HINTS TO 
SPORTSMEN 



Tl I E following is a copy of a booklet supplied by Arthur 
Little, huntsman of the Wheatley Kennels, said to have 
been written by Mr. Albany Sairle, master of a cele- 
brated pack of harriers in the western part of England. It 
i> undated, but from the style of type and binding, was issued at 
least sixty to seventy-five years ago, and is here reproduced 
because of the practical value of the suggestions made. 

1. A general rule as to hallooing, is, never to halloo unless 
you can give a good reason for so doing. 

2. A constant and indiscriminate use of the voice is very 
blamable in a huntsman. His hounds by constantly hearing his 
voice, will soon learn to pay no more attention to it than they 
do to the singing of a lark, and will not come to him when 
they are called. 

3. Some huntsmen have a trick of incessantly singing to 
their hounds when they are hunting and carrying on a scent. 
The consequence is, if they should check when he is not by, and 
will stand staring for the huntsman, and will no more hunt 
without him than some children will sleep, or oxen work, with- 
out being sung to. 

4. This same bad habit of not casting at a check is also 
given to hounds by a huntsman's always interfering the moment 
they check. 

5. AYhen hounds have checked the huntsman should turn his 
horse and allow his hounds to make their own cast. If he thinks 
the scent is behind, let him move slowly backward, and if his 
hounds be good for anything, they will cast around him. 

Let him attentively observe them, and while they continue 
casting with their noses down, he should sav not a word. When 



Tne neagle in England 243 



they have made their cast and do not hit the scent, then he may 
interfere and draw them in the direction in which he may judge 
the game is gone. 

In casting, however, let him attentively observe the hounds, 
and if they cast with their noses down, let him say not a word. 
Nothing can be worse than a huntsman's casting his hounds 
and hallooing when hounds are trying well in their proper 
[•laces. Every halloo, in such a situation, is, in effect, to try 
to make the hounds lift up their noses and look in his face to 
ask what he wants. 

6. Of the propriety of allowing the hounds to do their work 
without the huntsman's assistance, every man must be con- 
\ inced who has ever seen a pack of hounds at fault which have 
been much accustomed to a huntsman's interference, and farm- 
ers' hounds that have been used to hunt by themselves; one 
will not move without the huntsman; the other will keep on 
casting for an hour. 

7. Good hounds will seldom or never leave a good scent 
ahead unless the ground be fouled by sheep, ploughed land, very 
wet, dry roads, etc. 

8. Therefore, a huntsman should never force his hounds on 
against their will, unless it be on bad ground, as before 
described. Let them make their own cast. They are more 
likely to know than any man which way the scent lies. 

9. When hounds are casting a huntsman should be partic- 
ularly attentive to them. He will then see what ground they 
have tried carefully and what they have missed, and this will 
govern his own cast. 

10. When hounds check upon a road or path, a huntsman 
should always cast back on the line on which the hounds came 
forward. By this means the hounds will try each side, if they 
are good for anything; whereas, if he does what is called trying 
around and casts his hounds all on one side and the scent be on 
the other, he will make the check twice as long as it need be ; 
rot to say, that hounds casting of their own accord are ten times 
as likely to hit a bad scent as they are when trotting after a 
horse's heels. 

11. When hounds are hunting a bad scent, keep behind them 
and look on patiently. Hounds should never be lifted as long 
as they can carry a scent. 

12. in casting hounds it should be a constant rule to be 
pretty certain that the fault is not ahead. 



244 The Beagle in England 

13. A huntsman will govern himself in his cast by observing 
what ground the hounds have crossed in going forward. If he 
should have observed when the hounds are at fault on a path 
that some hounds have run on to the right of the path, it is 
most likely the game is gone to the left, and vice versa. 

14. A hare that has broke her country will commonly go 
down wind ; if she runs up wind, hounds will seldom check. 

15. Some huntsmen, making a cast, try that part of the 
ground where they can most conveniently ride, instead of that 
where it is most likely the game is gone. Others are trying to 
find a hare sitting instead of minding their hounds. Others ride 
on hallooing, without regarding their hounds while they are 
making their cast. Their own noise prevents them from hear- 
ing their hounds, who often take the scent and run oft" without 
their knowledge. 

16. In most packs there are some hounds that will at times 
hunt rabbits, vermin, curs, etc., especially after a long rest. A 
hound should never be encouraged until you are sure he hits a 
right scent. 

17. When game is hallooed, the hounds should not be taken 
to the most distant point where it was seen, but if possible, fifty 
or one hundred yards behind that point. If they are taken to 
the most distant point and there do not take the scent, you have 
then to cast at a venture, and are more likely to cast from the 
line of scent than towards it. If you go fifty yards behind the 
more distant point where the game was seen, you then know 
for all that distance which is the right way to draw your hounds. 

18. When you come to a spot where game has been seen, 
stand still and let all your hounds feel the scent. If, as soon 
a:- two or three touch it, you hurry all your hounds on imme- 
diately, the scent is often lost again. In bringing your hounds 
up to a scent, give them the wind as much as you can. 

19. If a single hound goes off to a good scent, get your pack 
to him as quickly as you can, but if it be with a bad scent and 
you go on with a noise and hurry, the pack will be in expecta- 
tion of a fresh scent, the hound that went off will be lifted by 
the noise, and you will have the scent to seek. Go gently, 
without noise, and the hounds will settle into the scent. 

20. If your hounds divide, get as near the chase as you can 
and give the view halloos. Nothing is more ridiculous than 
men at a distance hallooing "Hark Forward" to cast their 



The Beagle in England 245 



hounds, because, as they do not speak English, they cannot un- 
derstand what "Hark Forward" means. 

21. If you are not forward with the chase, the only good you 
can do to cast hounds is to drive them by a rate and the crack 
of a whip, and the chance that this has of making them do good 
is little more than by making them lie, if they should be lying 
on a scent, whereby they may possibly hear the chase hounds or 
a halloo. 

22. No person should halloo that is not well forward. It 
signifies little what words you use, as a hound's knowledge of 
language is confined to a view halloo, a call and a rate. It is 
the tone of the voice and not the words that they understand, 
and hounds will always draw to the voice if it be not a rate. 
This shows the impropriety of hallooing behind. 

23. No person should ride farther forward than the tail of the 
pack, because if you ride only abreast of the center of the pack, 
and the game turn short to the side on which you are, you must 
of necessity ride on the scent. It must be a bad pack, indeed. 
if a man cannot see the front hounds from the tail of it, and it is 
uncivil to the rest of the company to ride in that place where 
if all rode the sport could not go on, because it may be presumed 
that all will have an equal desire to go forward. A few yards 
wide of the tail is the proper place for a sportsman to ride in 
running good scent. Behind the hounds is the proper place for 
bad scent, because you are less likely to cross the scent, and 
game turns and tricks more frequently with bad scent than with 
good. 

24. In running good scent, if you are up with the pack, a 
cheering halloo does no harm; the hounds will not attend to it. 
and it is expressive of the pleasure of the hallooer. 

25. When there is no game on foot and conversation supplies 
the sport; keep your horses moving. It will prevent their catch- 
ing cold, and you will have a chance of doing some good by 
riding up a hare. 

26. When hounds are at fault and a hit is made by one or 
more, halloo them immediately; it will command the attention 
of the pack, and get them more quickly to the chase. 

27. When you whip hounds to a huntsman in casting, do it 
gently and with little noise, by which means the hounds will 
draw towards him, trying as they go ; whereas, loud and re- 
peated cracks of the whip and rates will make hounds fly to the 



246 The Beagle in England 

huntsman with their nose in the air. When you see them draw- 
ing properly toward him be silent. 

28. Never cap hounds with loud halloos to a bad scent. 
Capping, makes them wild and eager, and should never be done 
except when the scent is high. Hounds should be brought up 
gently to a cold scent. 

29. Never follow a huntsman that is casting hounds. You 
may be more profitably employed by endeavoring to pick a road 
and keeping your eye on the foil, etc. 

30. If a hound should be cast and he is using his best en- 
deavors to get in. do not rate and bully him ; it will discourage 
him and make him shy without the possibility of doing good. 

31. But, mob a skirter as much as possible. A skirter is he 
whose plan it is to run wide without attempting to get to the 
chase, and merits much harsher treatment than he who casts 
wide at a check, and goes to the hit the moment it is made. 

32. Never whip any man's hound but your own. A stroke 
of a whip injudiciously given to an old hound may make him 
shy and sullen and perhaps spoil him forever. The correction 
of the whip should be left to those who are intimately ac- 
quainted with their tempers and dispositions. 

33. Keep your eye always on the leading hounds. When 
they stop and cast back, turn your horse and they will cast by 
you. 

34. Never halloo a hare if the hounds are coming on with the 
scent. It is almost needless to say, never halloo a hare so as 
to give your hounds' view. If they should not catch her, they 
will probably so distress her as to spoil the run. 

35. A huntsman's first cast should never be wide, especially 
with hounds that will cast beyond him. If he fails to hit the 
first cast, then let him make a wider cast on fresh ground. No 
ground should be twice tried until he has completed the whole 
circle. 

36. In riding to hounds, be careful not to cross the scent 
ahead. If you see them inclining toward a road or path, by no 
means ride into it, but leave it unstained for the hounds to try.

The following table contains a list of all winners at beagle field trials, 
indexed by first letter of names, but running chronologically according to 
the first win of the individual, from the initial trial of the National Beagle 
Club of America in 1890 to the end of 1919, giving the name of the club 
and the year at which wins of the dog were made. Pack wins are not

Alphabetical List 



indexed, because records of individuals making up packs were too incom- 
plete. 

In the chronological table, covering the same period, will be found in 
addition to the name of the dog, its breeding and owner, and the place 
won and number of starters, and judges officiating. 

By taking the name of the winner from this list, with the data of name 
of club and year of wins, and referring to the corresponding reports in the 
chronological table, therefore, the complete field trial record of any field 
trial winner desired may be obtained. Examine each report of each trial 
indicated in the key to see if the same dog was placed more than once 
at the same meeting, in making up any individual record.

Beagle Field Trial 
Champions 

1890-1919 



Following is a list of beagle field trial winners entitled to the title of 
Field Trial Champion, under the rules in force from time to time, with 
their field trial championship record. 

Prior to championship stakes being offered, a stake was given to which 
the first place winners in the different classes were eligible, the winner 
of which was declared Absolute Winner, in effect so far as degree of 
competition was concerned, equal to a championship stake, therefore win- 
ners of this title are included in the list. 

The list is subdivided for convenience, according to the rules in force 
when the title or right to it was acquired, following the absolute winners, 
first winners in championship stakes, then those under the two win rule, 
and last, those under the point system. It must be understood some of 
them may not have been declared champions of record, claim of the title 
at times, and registration of the winner with the American Kennel Club 
being necessary under the rules. The same abbreviations for clubs are used 
as with the alphabetical index.

Field Trial Champions 



20Q 



NOTE: — The principal source of information for the earlier years of 
championship data, especially as to number of starters, is in the press 
reports. These have been found inaccurate at times, but owing to lack 
of records and in some cases their loss, and changes of officials, it has 
been impossible to check them accurately. 

The rule of the American Kennel Club for listing of starters in beagle 
field trial events went into effect in 1918. As the rule is understood by 
the compiler, the American Kennel Club will only recognize in its official 
field trial championship records meetings held during 1918 and 1919 which 
were licensed events. 

Whether the American Kennel Club will recognize wins and give credit 
under the rules on a field trial championship record for them, at meetings 
held by unlicensed clubs during the years 1007 to 191 7, inclusive, is a 
question that so far as the compiler knows, has not been ruled upon. 

It is unlikely any championship record not started in 1915 or subse- 
quently will be completed. The following table is carried back only to 1015, 
to show the championship ratings of the meetings from 1915 on. and facili- 
tate the compilation of records started in those years and added to subse- 
quently, using the same abbreviations for clubs found in other tables. 

All meetings held from 1915 to iqiq, inclusive, are included, and those 
which were unlicensed events are indicated with the asterisk. The records 
of the American Kennel Club are assumed to be correct, being from re- 
ports furnished by the secretaries of the different clubs, and as to the 
ratings of the various licensed meetings during that period, the tables given 
previously and this table, have been checked with the records of the Amer- 
ican Kennel Club, and are believed to be correct.

The Randall Beagle Kennels 

"The Home of the Happy Hunters" 
In the Great Adirondack Forests At North Creek, New York 

If you want beagles that HUNT, come to the Fountain Head — the home 
of the famous "PATCHES.'' The birthplace of the world's greatest white 
hare hunter — Field Champion Patch. 

We are the originators of the Patch strain of beagles; too well known to 
all the beagle world to need description here. 

We knew, years ago, our foremost breeders know TODAY, and YOU 
will know tomorrow, that the PATCHES are the RECOGNIZED LEAD- 
ERS in the hunting field. 

A 700-acre tract of land; in the very heart of the White Hare country; 
miles ' from any neighbor, is our Wilderness Home. 

Here our puppies are born and trained. Our hunting grounds are ideal; 
unsurpassed in fact, in this country. We only need open a kennel door 
and start the game. 

Towering peaks, covered with a virgin tangle of dense jungle directly in 
front of the kennels, and gigantic cedar swamps in the rear, where hoards 
of great White Hare breed and dwell, offer to us an advantage that few 
kennels can boast of. 

Cottontails too, swarm in the lower foothills, thus we have both white hare 
and cottontails on which to train our puppies. 

Therefore we are directly in a position to offer to the buying public-^ 
BEAGLES THAT HUNT. 

We have already spent nearly a quarter of a century in building up this 
pack; don't be deceived — if you get any at all — get the BEST.

F. T. Ch. KISHWAUKEE MARY is the foundation blood on which 
I am building my pack. 

She is one of the three champion daughters of Somerset Clinker, the 
proven best producing cross on dams of the blood of Hempfiekl Little 
Dandy, the sire of her dam. 

This justifies her right as a producer, her daughters and grandsons being 
field and bench winners, showing that her blood is prepotent and breeds on. 

On this blood I am crossing the greatest sire the breed has ever known, 
my Ch. Imp. Stoke Place Sapper, a producer of more high class winners 
than any other sire, in which he has no competitor. I have probably more 
of this combination of prize winning blood than can be found in any 
other kennels. 

From time to time I shall add the blood of such other producing fam- 
ilies as I believe will help in further improvement.
